Equality for World Peace(UN MONTH)

The thought of peace, love and unity is not new to us as humans, as individuals and as citizens. War to peace, hate to love, division to unity. Peace shines, love wins, unity matters. World peace is imporant.

Every nation has uniqueness and differences. Every country differs in language, in culture, beliefs, colors, but we are all harmonious luke music having a beautiful different beats but tuned as one. As we celebrate the United Nations Month with the theme, "Coming together with those furthest behind to build an inclusive world of universal respect and dignity," may we all learn to value respect, even those who belong to poor country, but consider them as our own brothers and sisters. Let's show equality no matter what the country's state is, still let's all treat each and everyone fair, whether they are working as a domestic helper to your home, treat them as family, if you can't, as a human God made as a sign of respect to their country, not as an animal who caused trouble. Treat everyone well, not being one of the judgmental people, not joining the judgmental society.

1. We must look-up into each other. Let's all hope for better world by knowing and being aware of equality between or among every citizens, whether from our country or not. We must respect each other, be united as one to keep the world peace, to stop those wars, violence and judgments of the society.

Real Heroes of the Nation(WORLD TEACHERS' DAY)

When we were still children up to now, we tend to watch fairy tales, action movies and superheroes. In the movies, superheroes are admired by the incredible strength they have, the bravery to fight for peace and the heart to save the world. They have superpowers and they have their enemies, and in the end they will succeed and filled with fulfilment. But then, they are only found in fantasies. In reality, our real superheroes are without supernatural powers, supernatural strength but they are always ready to save the world through teaching.

Teachers are the real superheroes. They teach us with love, care and willingness. They gain knowledge from us as we gain knowledge from them. Through them, we are always educates in discipline. They teach us with all their strength for us to have a better future. They teach us which are right and wrong, right and left, colors, numbers, everything we need from basics to complicated. By the end of the day, they will be tired teaching numerous students. But as years go by, when their former student succeeds, they too are successful. There's no other profession if there are no teachers to guide them.

Teachers teach us not only lessons but also the values in life. They are one of the motivation we have. We need to learn how to love them as our parents. We must thank them for every accomplishments we have done. Everyday, thank our teachers. They are truly heroes of the nation, saving our future for a better world.

Show Your Hidden Talents (Science Month Celebration)

Every year, in the month of September, ISNHS celebrates the Science Month. This year, the theme was "WAVEFRONT: Accentuating Potentials, Activating Technological Advancement."

One of the most awaited month is the Science Month Celebration, especially the highlights and activities of the said celebration. In their activities, they accentuate the potentials of each student; participant or non-participant. They make students go out of the box and share the talent, beauty and wit they have. In this celebration, they also make use and gain more knowledge on how to activate the advancement of technologies, for good use because we all know that the world now is getting broader when it comes to technologies.

In this activity, we must know how to share our thoughts, potentials, and to activate the technological advance in order for us to gain more knowledge and deeper wisdom.

The Positive and Fighting Spirits (PHILIPPINE RESILIENCY)

The Philippines is located near West Basin and at the Pacific Ring of Fire that's why it is called a "disaster-prone" country. It experiences a lot of of disaster like volcanic eruption, earthquake, and typhoons. There are 20-26 typhoons entering the Philippine Area of Responsibility and the Philippines already experienced war.

The Filipinos had faced a lot of challenges in life. These include the war in Marawi. Last May 23, 2017, the Battle of Marawi started. It was a 5-month long armed conflict between the Philippine Government Security Forces, and Maute and Abusayaff groups. The war ended on October 23, 2017. the typhoon Yolanda, also known as "typhoon Haiyan" devastated some portions of the Southeast Asia, and one of the country who suffered from the typhoon is the Philippines. People died, many innocent lives were taken, some went missing, some drowned in the flood, some sacrificed, but despite of these disasters, Filipinos still smile like how the Sun shines, even though we went through a lot of difficulties.

Filipinos are flexible. They still manage to stay happy and be at peace even though pain is killing them. They learn to accept and let go, although they can't forget the sorrow. Resiliency can be seen. how they cope up with the hatreds, pain and sorrows, and they still have hope for a better tomorrow. They still have faith to God, holding unto His promise and as their savior. You can see how their faith and braveness outshine even death is surrounding them.

Filipino: Wika ng Saliksik

"Nagdudulot sa akin ng di matingkalang kasiyahan na maipahayag ko sa inyo na ngayong ika-41 na anibersaryo ng pagmamartir ng nagtatag at pinakadakilang nagtatag ng nasyonalismong Pilipino, ay naging karangalan kong ilagda, bilang pag-alinsunod sa utos ng Konstitusyon at ng umiiral na batas, ang isang Kautusang Tagapagpaganap na nagtatalaga sa isa sa mga katutubong wika na maging batayan ng wikang pambansa ng bayang Pilipino", inihayag ng Ama ng Wikang Pambansa, ang dating Pangulo ng Pilipinas, Manuel L. Quezon, noong ika-30 ng Disyembre, 1937, na inayon sa Executive Order No. 134. Maraming proklamasyon ang ginawa upang palitan o baguhin ang petsa ng pagdiriwang ng Pambansang Wika, at noong ika-15 ng Enero, 1997, ipinahayag ng dating Pangulo na si Fidel V. Ramos na ang buong buwan ng Agosto ay ang "Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa".

Ang Komisyon ng Wikang Filipino, o KWF, kasama ang Department of Education (DepED), ay naatasan upang pangunahan ang isang buwang pagdiriwang. At ngayong taong 2018, ang tema ng Buwan ng Wika ay, "Filipino:Wika ng Saliksik" (Filipino: Language of Research). Marami ang mga kaganapan tuwing ipinagdiriwang ito; ang sabayang pagbigkas, balagtasan, paggawa ng posters, slogans, paggawa ng sanaysay, pagbigkas ng tula, pagsayaw ng mga katutubong sayaw, at pag-awit ng mga katutubong awit. Ang mga layunin ng pagdiriwang ay upang lubos na maipatupad ang Presidential Proclamation Number 1041, series of 1997; upang hikayatin ang mga iba't ibang ahensiya ng gobyerno at mga pribadong sektor na mas palawigin at itaguyod ang wikang Filipino; upang hikayatin at bigyang inspirayon ang mga Pilipino na mas lalong tangkilikin, mahalin at pahalagahan ang pambansang Wika.

May mga mamamayang Pilipino ang mas pinipili ang ibang lenggwahe kaysa sa ating sariling wika. Atin silang hikayatin at ihayag na dapat pahalagahan ang sariling atin upang mas lalo tayong magkaisa sa paglalawig ng wikang Filipino, ang Wika ng Saliksik.
