Montessori
S.V. Montessori held its 2nd Olympiad last October 23, 2014 at the SVM
Quadrangle with the theme Discovering Your Inner Potential.
The event aimed for discovering the Montessorians skills not only in terms of
literary and speaking proficiency but also in their academic aptitude for the
different particular learning areas such as Science, Information Technology
and Mathematics.
Students from Elementary and Junior Middle Division were chosen to
compete for each category. The Quiz Bee for Science and Mathematics were
divided into three categories: Grade School Category A (Grades 1-3), Grade
School Category B (Grades 4-6), and Junior Middle Division.
The participants were also challenged in the Robotics, Web Design, Digital
Imaging and Power Point Presentation events were they were asked to
conceptualize and create their own.
The Speech Competition was categorized into Declamation and
Extemporaneous Speaking, were participants of the former came from grade
school and high school and the latter from high school only.
Later that day, the top three winners for each event were announced and
awarded with medals.

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. Thats 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, its 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.
Congratulations to the new Student Council officers! You are the epitome of committed, responsible,
disciplined, and trustworthy SVM leaders. To lead is to serve!

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

You and I
First Day
By Wensy Galvez
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.
