GEANHS joins the nation in celebrating National Disaster Resilience Month 2018 in July, with the theme: “Katatagan sa kalamidad ay makakamtan kapag sapat ang kaalaman at kahandaan.” The goal of the month-long celebration to is raise awareness among Filipinos and encourage them to commit to building resilient Filipino communities by empowering themselves.Leading the school’s local celebration is the School Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Group (SDRRMG) composed of teachers and students volunteers who have a passion for promoting safety and security in the community. Collectively, the SDRRMG believes that the responsibility in disaster risk management does not lie in them alone; each individual in GEANHS must work together towards resiliency.
The school conducted activities relative to four thematic areas namely: disaster prevention and mitigation, disaster preparedness, disaster response, and disaster rehabilitation and recovery.
GEANHS celebrates National Disability Prevention and Rehabilitation (NDPR) Week with a vibrant activity that showcases the beauty and talents of Special Education (SPED) students. The contenders, clad in their best casual wear, sportswear, and formal wear, graced the stage with their powerful presence. The audience, including parents and relatives of the contestants, were charmed when they gave their best in showing their talents onstage. The activity ended with a serenade by Mr. Michael Angelo Maleriado, National Teachers’ Got Talent Champion, and the awarding of winners. July 17-23 was declared as NDPR Week 2018, with the theme: “Kakayahan at Kasanayan Para sa Kabuhayan Tungo sa Kaunlaran.” The celebration was founded as a step towards building awareness among Filipinos on the challenges of disability, and encouraging PWDs to be more productive, self-reliant, and empowered to participate as active citizens of the country.
With the advent of e-commerce and small online businesses, young people often forget that agriculture has once been the primary enterprise in the country. With the aim to strengthen the youth’s awareness on agriculture, anchored by the Gulayan sa Paaralan Project by the Department of Education, this year’s Nutrition Month has the theme: “Ugaliing magtaninm, Sapat na nutrisyon aanihin!”
GEANHS joined the bandwagon in sharing the gift of agriculture to young people by adding Vegetable Planting Competition in its annual roster of activities. Ms. Merizza Tabacon, chairman of the competition, shared the importance of knowing how to plant vegetables and small fruit crops: “Through gardening, our students can learn patience, resourcefulness and responsibility.”
Nutrition Month 2018, held during the whole month of July, also showcased the talents and skills of students not only in Agri-Fishery Arts, but as well as in Industrial Arts, Home Economics, and Information and Communications Technology. TLE teachers organized and implemented these competitions in order to enrich the technical skills of students in preparation for employment and entrepreneurship. “Backyard gardening, like any other technical skill is an avenue for entrepreneurship, which leads to self-sufficiency. By teaching them how to plant, cook, and fix electronic or electrical fixtures, we empower them with the necessary tools for survival.” Mrs. Crisanta F. Caudal, chairman of the Nutrition Month Celebration, stated.
In preparation for the Division Schools Press Conference (DSPC), the Schools Division Office of Imus City organized and conducted the Division Campus Journalism Training 2018 at GEANHS on July 26-27. Campus journalists from public elementary and secondary schools gathered for two days of mentorship and intensive training from the best trainors and practitioners in journalism.The first day was dedicated to news writing, sports writing, copyreading and headline writing, editorial writing, and radio broadcasting. Day two of the training focused on feature writing, science and health writing, photojournalism, editorial cartooning, and collaborative publishing. As the training ended, The Patriot and Ang Bayani journalists are more than ready to bring home the honor for the upcoming DSPC in September.
