NOVEMBER, What A Significant Month!

November,what a significant month for me!

November, is the 11th month of our 12-month calendar. Every month has significant events to be celebrated in our country. The most common event we always celebrate in November is the All Saint's Day (1) and All Soul's Day (2).

In our school, we celebrate the "FILIPINO-VALUES MONTH CELEBRATION" with the theme "Pagpapatibay ng Pagkataong Pilipino: Tugon sa Hamon ng Panahon". The club sponsored different activities like the kite flying,slogan and poster making, essay, morning trivia and many more.

November 16, 2009 was a significant date to all of us Ilocanos especially here in Ilocos Sur, specifically in the town of Caoayan. Why? because we commemorate the 119th Birth Anniversary of the great and illustrious son of Caoayan-Former President Elpidio Mendoza Rivera-Quirino(my great grandfather/relative). "Pidiong" was a man of gracious manner, dignified in bearing, gifted in counsel and skilled in the discovery of solutions to problems. It was Monday and its a holiday to the whole province of Ilocos Sur, when we celebrated the Quirino Day. Some clubs in our school attended the Floral Offering in the front of the Quirino Monument near the Provincial Capitol. It is the same in Caoayan, they celebrated the Quirino Day by having a requiem mass and floral offering in front of the Quirino Shrine in the facade of the Caoayan Municipal Hall.

Last November 18,2009 was the Division-Step Skills Competition which was held at the ISNHS Centennial Gymnasium participated by the different Secondary schools in the city. There are different activities like Techno-Quiz, Electronic Poster, Cocktail Mixing, Table Skirting and many more. The school was so proud because our candidate coming from the ISNHS represented our division in the Regional Competition at Mangaldan National High School, Mangaldan, Pangasinan.

November 26-28 was the three(3)-day CITY MEET which as held at the ISNHS and attended by the different districts and secondary schools around the Vigan City Division. The City Meet has several games played by the different skillful players of each school. The city meet was watched/witnessed by many people because the players showed excellence in the way perform the games.

The month of November was indeed successful and fruitful because all of the activities were carried out smoothly. All of these activities gives a lot of benefits to us because it molds our skills, self-confidence and wholesome personality. Only what I can say "EXPERIENCE IS THE BEST TEACHER"
