A dynamic and inspiring workshop titled “Enhancing Student Behavior, Pinong Pino Ako” was conducted for Grades 7-12 at the Central Hall on January 15.

Led by the esteemed speaker Ms. Caryl Joy, the event brought together students and teachers in a lively and interactive session, as it kicked off with an ice breaker entitled “Eh ikaw?” which brought the session to life as teachers competed with students.

With the guidance of Ms. Joy, attendees delved into critical topics, including the significance of confidence and self-esteem in navigating teenage challenges, building meaningful relationships and preparing for adulthood, and the value of ethical decision-making in shaping responsible individuals.

“I feel empowered—it was emotional and I realized that Pinong-Pino ako isn’t just something that should be said but done as we aspire to be Christ-like; like God,” Ephraim Buenaflor from 10-Glorious felt after the event.
