Message from the

President I feel extremely fortunate to welcome you in the mid of the Academic Year 2014 – 2015!

SVM is a community of determined administrators, faculty, staff, and parents striving to give the highest quality education possible that will make a difference for our students. I am confident to say that education is different in SVM, where real learning happens and the students are able to get a glimpse of real life.

We unceasingly goal to yearly increase student achievement and prepare our students to be productive citizens inside and outside SVM who are able to meet the challenges of the 21st Century with confidence and assurance.

Thus, we constantly seek to improve our educational program to better meet the academic needs of our students, including their social and virtual needs. Hence, we are currently maintaining a Facebook Fan Page where news and updates are regularly posted and a fully operational website which they can visit anytime. We have also revived the official newsletter of SVM, Topnotch, which is a collaborative effort of the teachers and students.

We firmly believe that schools are a reflection of the community and we work very hard at SVM to ensure that our school reflects positively in our c o mmu nity . Co ns e quently , w e constantly promote parent involvement on the student’s education. Research proves that what parents do at home greatly influences children’s academic performance. Attitudes toward reading, learning and developing good study habits are initially developed at home. Therefore, parent involvement at home is constantly linked with higher grades, better attendance and positive behaviors.

I am proud to say that SVM’s 21 years of existence are years of excellence. And our administration, faculty, and staff are looking forward for a more productive and enriching years of learning of your children here at SVM.

SVM Celebrates UN 2014 By Ms. Izza Quinones

S.V. Montessori celebrated the United Nations last October 18, 2014 with the theme “Colorful Dances of the World.”

The SVM Quadrangle was jam-packed with excited students and families, who were all present to cheer and show their support to the contestants. The activity started at exactly 8 a.m. with the invocation led by selected Grade 5 ̶ Dignity students, followed by the singing of the Philippine National Anthem. Ms. Izza Quinones, the Chairman of the UN celebration, gave the welcome remarks.

The program proper commenced with a colorful parade of the nations of all SVM students from Casa to Junior Middle Division. It was followed by the presentation of altered folk dances of different nations.

The contestants were once again introduced and were tested through the Question & Answer portion.

The last part of the program was the most awaited part—the awarding of winners. Minor awards were first given, namely: Best in Talent, Best Performance in Production Number, Best in Ramp Modelling, People’s Choice Award On-Line Voting and In-Campus Votes, Photogenic and Best in Costume.

Marcus Jade Tanauan and Angel Princess Cataluña won Little Mr. & Little Ms. United Nations, respectively. While Jacob Miles Tanauan and Yvon Albegas were declared Mr. & Ms. United Nations, respectively.

A Pre-Pageant was held last October 15 where the contestants showcased their talents, modelling skills, and costumes.

Winners were determined by the Board of Judges—Ms. Soledad Vasquez, Mr. Rod Steven Vasquez, Mr. Ricky Adorna, Ms. Cristialyn Baraño, and Ms. Glaiza Azurin—who were chosen to assess the participants in terms of wit, beauty and confidence.∞

JMD IV Conducts

Community Service

The JMD IV students of S.V. Montessori held their

community service last July 12 and October 25, 2014 at

Pinagbuklod Court and Brgy. Magdalo, respectively.

Equipped with their own cleaning materials, the JMD IV

students were all set for the clean-up. Each were

assigned with an area to clean.

S.V. Montessori believes that the sense of responsibility

cannot only be taught inside the four walls of the

classroom. That’s why SVM highly encourages its

students to actively participate in community service

activities as it teaches responsibility not only for

themselves, but for other people as well. It also helps

them understand the impact of their actions toward their

community.

As an old adage says, it’s never too early to teach

children the value of community service. Children who

get involved in civic activities at an early age immediately

learn the value of giving back to others and form positive

habits that can stay with them for life.

The JMD IV students may have been rewarded for their

hard work with refreshments only but the awareness and

values they had gained from the activity will serve them

now and years later as they leave SVM and face the new

challenges of their student life. ∞

multiplied by millions of

people, can transform

the world.” - Howard Zinn

Social Studies Day at SVM By Ms. Liza Dejucos

S.V. Montessori celebrated the Social Studies Day last September 18, 2014 with the theme “National Unity: A Long time Filipino Dream.”

The event was celebrated through different activities like Quiz Bee, Poster Making Contest, Collage Making Contest, and Essay Writing Contest.

The Quiz Bee, which composed of three sets, was open to all Grade School and Junior Middle Division. Set A consisted of participants from Grade 1 to Grade 3 and was held from 8:00 am to 9:00 am; set B consisted of Grade 4 to Grade 6 participants held at 9:30 am to 10:30 am; and Set C consisted of JMD 1 to JMD 4 participants held at 11:00 am to 12:00 pm.

The same set was also followed in the Poster Making Contest. While the Collage Making Contest composed of Grade 3 to JMD 4 participants, were divided into 2 sets. The Essay Writing Contest comprised of Grade 3 students up to JMD 4.

One of the highlights of this event was the exhibit of Brochure Making which featured the seven continents of the world.

Through these activities, S.V. Montessorians proved their skills and abilities when it comes to arts and intelligence, and at the same time, improved what they already have. ∞

SVM Arts and Science Educational Tour By Mr. Ricky Adorna

The SVM Arts and Science Educational Tour held last September 12 was considered a successful one. A total of 137 participants joined the trip, excluding the 17 SVM teachers and staff.

The first itinerary was in Sweet Harmony in Taytay, Rizal where we were welcomed in a holding area just like attending a debutant party with chandeliers made of recycled mineral bottle materials. The program started with a prayer followed by a dance exercise that made our spirits alive early in the morning. The group was reviewed on the topic of 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) with a demo on how to make a functional product out of trash. Afterwards, the group was divided into two, wherein the Casa to Grade 3 had their Cupcake Decoration Activity while the Grades 4–6 consumed their time in Cookie Making. The high school group had their tour of the venue including the playing time of the “Laro ng Lahi” (patintero, piko, luksong baka, tumbang preso, luksong tinik, etc.). The grade school group experienced the same activity while the high school had their Healthy Snacks Preparation Activity. Our stay to the wonderful place ended at around 11:30 a.m.

Group A (Casa to Grade 3) went to the awesome and thrilling trip to the Avilon Zoo, Montalban, Rizal while Group B (Grade 4 – 4th Year HS) proceeded to the nerve wrecking and full of learning tour to the Myth of the Human Body in Boom na Boom, Pasay City. The two groups met again at around 6:30 p.m. in the magnificent place of the Manila Ocean Park where we visited the Oceanarium, Birds of Prey, Penguin Talk Show, Dry Encounter with Sting Ray, Back of the House Activity, Sea Lion Show, and the colorful Jellies Exhibit.

Indeed, our outbound tour was exciting and extremely educational. To the students, it’s an extension of the learning that they had in the classroom for the Arts and Science subjects with a bucket full of unforgettable memories spent together with their parents, friends, and classmates. ∞

It was not just an ordinary educational trip but a memorable experience full of fun and learnings!

You and I By Vernice Victoria Eusebio

Brown eyes shine, bright Looking at the future’s light

Great ambitions about to start Trying to leave a mark.

Hard as it may be We’ll part ways eventually But, know what we began

Won’t end with one share of the hand.

What we made is forever But depends on who’ll hold on

‘Coz we are stronger Than people who’ve moved on.

Literary Board Little Kitty

By Vernice Victoria Eusebio

Little kitty, naïve and helpless Little kitty, walking in the rain Little kitty, afraid and careless Little kitty, knows no pain.

You are alone, little kitty Amongst the crowded city

You think of it all Because you feel so small.

Don’t you know, little kitty? I am here for you

I don’t bare any pity I know you’ll make it through.

“Stop following me, ugly puppy” But I think you’re funny, grumpy kitty “Silly puppy, do what makes you happy”

Little kitty, I’m afraid with loyalty.

It all started in the first day I still remember when I saw your face

It made my heart beat really fast Just a simple girl that's all I was.

We started to have these conversations It made me hold my breath for seconds We started to chat like we were close

I think I'm falling in love but no one knows.

Our generation is about the Facebook trend

I was so glad when you became my friend But are we just gonna stay that way? With me just hoping that you'll stay?

How long are we gonna wait?

We've got our dreams for us to take We're still young but it's not too late

To realize what love can make.

S.V. Montessorians Attend Anti-Bullying Seminar by Ms. Cristialyn Baraño

To fully strengthen the campaign for Anti-Bullying, S.V. Montessori conducted the Anti-Bullying Seminar for its students last September 2-3, 2014 with the aim of evading any incident of bullying inside and outside the school premises and strengthening the minds of the S.V. Montessorians to be better individuals.

The SVM Grade School students were oriented about anti-bullying on September 2. The students gathered to listen and extend their knowledge about bullying. Grade School Coordinator Mr. Rey Anthony Llorin delivered topics about bullying, including its devastating effects, elements and types, as well as its prevention and intervention. Strategies and what to do when bullying happens were also discussed. The

seminar focused not only to the victim but also to the bully and the bystanders.

The following day, September 3, the JMD students had their anti-bullying seminar facilitated by JMD Coordinator Ms. Cristialyn E. Baraño together with other JMD teachers Ms. Flor Mangino, Sir Joseph Jamison, Ms. Izza Quiñones, and Ms. Joy Mendoza. They tackled about the elements of bullying, types of bullying and the bullying triad.

The learning was reinforced by an activity on September 5 where JMD students were grouped and asked to answer a crossword puzzle. Each group is composed of students from different levels with different personalities, abilities and preferences. But despite their diversity, camaraderie and respect reigned over each group, proving that the seminar was indeed effective.

Both the Grade School Students and JMD agreed and signed on the Anti-Bullying Pledge—a proof that the students are one in supporting the campaign. ∞

Each group was assigned with a crossword

puzzle to work on.

SVM SAYS NO TO BULLYING By Ms. Cristialyn Baraño

In support of the campaign for the protection of every Filipino child, faculty and staff of S.V. Montessori attended the “Stop Bullying!” Seminar last August 30, 2014 held at Imus Sports Complex, Imus City, Cavite.

The seminar, which centered on bullying awareness, prevention and intervention, was attended by parents, faculty, and staff from different schools in Cavite. Author and motivational speaker Mr. Jobert R. Tolentino facilitated the seminar.

Last 2013, the Republic Act No. 10627, otherwise known as the Anti-Bullying Act of 2013, was implemented in response to the increasing number of bullying reports in schools all over the country.

Bullying encompasses physical harm, utterance of slanderous statements causing emotional distress on the victim, name-calling, and even the common form that most Netizens face today, cyber-bullying. According to DepEd Secretary Bro. Armin Luistro, the Philippines is one of the first countries to implement an anti-bullying act in the world (InterAksyon).

Anti-bullying campaigns are now being implemented in all public and private basic and secondary schools in the country. Intervention programs such as counseling and trainings are also promoted aside from disciplinary measures imposed to protect the welfare of the students. ∞

The month of July won’t be complete without the celebration

of Nutrition Month.

S.V. Montessori celebrated the Nutrition Month last July 26,

2014 at the SVM quadrangle with the theme “Kalamidad

Paghandaan, Gutom at Malnutrisyon Agapan."

The program showcased creativity and talents of students

from all year levels. Each performance showed how hunger

and malnutrition should be addressed during times of

calamities and disasters, as well as the importance of

immediate response to these situations.

Winners of the Nutrition Month Competition were also

announced that day. The competition was held on July 24,

two days before the actual program, where students from

different levels competed in each category. The Casa pupils

competed in a Cup Cake Decoration and Coloring Contest.

While the Grades 1-3 competed in a Mini-Cake decoration

and selected students from Grades 4 to JMD 4 competed in

the Cooking Contest, Poster Making, Table Setting and Essay

AY 2013-2014 SCO, Class Officers Induction

The induction of newly elected Student Council Organization (SCO) officers and classroom officers from Grades 1 to 10 of Academic Year 2013-2014 was held last June 21, 2014 at the SVM Maria Montessori Hall. It was followed by a Leadership Training Seminar.

Mr. Ryan Muyet, an alumnus of the school, was invited as guest speaker of the Induction ceremony. His experiences as a leader filled the minds of the young leaders with great thoughts on being a good leader, inspiring them to continue working and striving hard in service of others.

After the inspirational talk, the presentation of class and SCO officers was initiated by SCO Adviser Ms. Cristialyn Baraño. It was followed by the induction of the SCO officers led by Mr. Muyet, then the ceremonial passing of responsibilities, and lastly, the induction of Class Officers led by SCO President Ronald Vincent Alimoren.

The highlight of the activity—the Leadership Training Seminar—was held after the induction. The goal of this activity was to orient the new leaders in their roles, duties, and responsibilities as leaders not only of their respective sections but as future leaders of the society. Moreover, the activity emphasized the value of good leadership, while inculcating coordination and camaraderie among them.

Some faculty members also shared their knowledge and experiences to the officers as well. Ms. Izza Quiñones talked about leadership and its importance. While Ms. Drezel Joy Mendoza discussed about the Ten I’s to be a Good Leader. Lastly, Ms. Flordeliza Mangino shared about the roles of leadership. The young leaders also enjoyed the activities that challenged their leadership skills.

The whole program revolved around the theme, “Discovering the Treasure of Leadership.” The learning and values the young leaders have acquired through the activities are the priceless treasure they can keep and live by as they serve the SVM community and their society. ∞

In fulfillment of its mission of continuous

development of its educators, S.V. Montessori

supported a series of training and development

seminar for its faculty members that were held from

May 16 to June 6, 2014.

The first in the series was the SRA Mathematics

Seminar facilitated by Dr. Roslyn Egan. It was a

morning session held in Abiva Publishing House,

Quezon City last May 16. The seminar was followed in

the afternoon with the viewing of the Philippine Educa-

tional Theater Association (PETA) stage play titled

“Ang Batang Rizal” held at Star Theater, Pasay City.

The annual Faculty Orientation was held May 26 at

SVM’s Computer Laboratory. It aimed to provide

teaching information, skills and resources especially for

new faculty members. It was facilitated by School

Principal Mr. Ricky L. Adorna, Grade School

Coordinator Mr. Rey Anthony Llorin, and JMD

Coordinator Ms. Cristialyn E. Baraño.

The SRA English & Computer Lab Classroom

Management Workshop was done on May 27, with Ms.

Grace Salosid from Abiva Publishing House as

speaker.

An overview of Singapore Mathematics and

Science facilitated by Mr. Llorin and Ms. Baraño

followed morning of the next day, May 28. A seminar

about “Teachers in the 21st Century Classroom” was

then held in the afternoon. It talked about the

challenges that teachers encounter and the techniques

that they can apply to facilitate learning in the

classroom. The speaker is Dr. Zenaida C. Abalos of

3K-IT Educational Services.

A Teaching Demonstration was held the following

day, May 29. The activity aimed to improve and share

the faculty members’ teaching techniques, utilizing the

most current educational styles and instructional media

that contribute to effective teaching practices.

On May 30, the faculty members went for an

Educational Tour at The Mind Museum in Bonifacio

Global City, Taguig. This only proves that educational

tours are not only for students, but for teachers as well.

Moreover, the English Enhancement Seminar-

Workshop was held on June 2 with Dr. Evelyn

Asuncion, School Directress of Jollikiddie Montessori,

as resource speaker. It was followed by a two-day

seminar on Robotics (June 3-4), Computer Literacy

Seminar (June 5), and Echoing of “Batang Rizal” Stage

Play, all facilitated by Mr. Adorna.

The series of seminar-workshops held is just one

tool implemented by the administrators of S.V.

Montessori to continually improve the teaching

standards of its teachers. In today’s changing world,

teachers must be au fait with their knowledge and skills

in order to meet the various classroom challenges as

well as the needs of 21st century students. As an

Indian professor once said, "Teachers must be

continuous learners as they mold the manpower

required for nation building.” ∞
