Isidore de Seville Integrated School held a heartwarming and cheerful celebration of Teachers’ Day, recognizing the dedication, sacrifices, and unwavering commitment of its educators.
The day began with delightful classroom surprises from each advisory class, where learners expressed their appreciation through small tokens of love and gratitude. Teachers were then escorted to the Function Hall, where the official program opened. Each teacher was warmly introduced on stage and gamely showcased their dance moves.
The celebration formally started with an invocation led by SELG Vice President Andrey Baltazar, followed by the singing of the National Anthem led by Ethan Bryant Villegas, SELG Historian. Chaniel Alexah Olaña, SELG President, delivered the opening remarks, extending a warm welcome to everyone present.
The program was further enlivened by special performances prepared by learners. Chloe J. Gaspar and Brianna Dionisio, both from Grade 6-Babbage, serenaded the teachers with a duet, while preschool, select primary and intermediate learners showcased their talents through energetic dance performances.
One of the most touching parts of the program was when each teacher was called on stage and presented with a heartfelt message from their learners.
In her inspirational message, School Principal Teacher Arcelita J. Gaspar highlighted the noble sacrifices teachers make every day to ensure learners receive not only quality education but also genuine care. She emphasized that teaching is a profession built on passion and service to others.
Ms. Donabel Gonzales Vialu, SPTA President, also delivered a stirring speech of gratitude. “You proved to us that being a teacher is not just a profession, it is a calling. And as your parent-partners, we are here to support you in any way we can. Together, we will build a strong school community where every learner feels empowered and loved. Thank you for reminding us all that teaching can truly change the world, one child at a time,” she expressed.
Members from the Music and Movements Organisation also performed a song number that moved the teachers to tears.
Representing the faculty, Teacher Anri Jane Crisostomo, Head Teacher, accepted the outpouring of appreciation on behalf of her colleagues. She thanked the learners, parents, and the administration for their efforts in making the teachers feel valued and cherished.
Serving as the graceful ladies of ceremony were Reese Oona Pascual and Zamara V. Lapuz, both from Grade 5-Atanasoff.
The event was made possible through the hard work and dedication of the Supreme Elementary Learner Government (SELG) under the guidance of their adviser, Teacher Cristy Rose U. Umali, along with the enthusiastic participation of the learners and the strong support of the school administration.
After the program, the celebration continued with a delicious lunch prepared by the school administration. To add sweetness to the occasion, Ms. Donabel Vialu, Mr. Edgar Jerome Vialu, and their two sons, Dannel Jacob and Dylan Jace, prepared a special iced coffee booth where teachers enjoyed refreshing cups of coffee.
The SPTA also expressed their appreciation further by giving thoughtful gifts to all teachers.
Indeed, the Teachers’ Day celebration at Isidore was a heartfelt tribute, filled with joy, gratitude, and love for the unsung heroes who inspire, nurture, and shape the future of every learner.
