117th Fun Day

"We didn't realize we were making memories. We just thought we were having fun" Before school year ends, we celebrate the Highschool day. For this year, 117th Highschool Day was celebrated last March 1 and 2, 2019. On the first day afternoon, the Princes and the Princesses were recognized in the gym. His Royal Highness Angeleo Paet and Her Majesty Queen Jannelle Maria Unciano are the Mr. and Ms. ISNHS Coronation Ceremony. On the second day, the program started with a parade of all students together with their loving advisers. On the afternoon, students showed their performance on the field. Not just that, teachers also showed off their moves. It was worth all the practices we've made. And the crown goes to the Grade 8 students! Highschool day celebrated every school year yet we still feel the excitement and fun before and during the event. Next school year, I hope to add more contests and booths to show the skills of the students. The more the merrier!
