Celebrating Our August 2026 Class Awardees!

At St. Francis of Assisi Montessori School of Cainta, we believe that good character is built through everyday habits—showing respect, acting responsibly, working together, and taking care of the spaces we share.

For August 2026, we are happy to recognize four classes that stood out through their conduct, discipline, and sense of responsibility.

Outstanding Class Conduct Award

The Outstanding Class Conduct Award is given each month to classes with no recorded disciplinary offenses during the month. It recognizes students who consistently demonstrate respect, responsibility, self-discipline, and proper behavior in school.

This month’s awardees are:

Grade 6 Generosity
Congratulations to Grade 6 Generosity for earning the Outstanding Class Conduct Award for August. The class also received the Clean and Orderly Classroom Award, making this a double achievement. Special thanks to their class adviser, Teacher Jeorja, for her guidance and support.

Grade 8 Aristotle
Grade 8 Aristotle also earned the Outstanding Class Conduct Award for consistently maintaining good behavior and a respectful learning environment throughout the month. We also thank their class adviser, Teacher Lorely, for her guidance, patience, and support.

Grade 2 Love
Our younger Franciscans from Grade 2 Love showed that good conduct begins early. Their respectful behavior, responsibility, and cooperation earned them the Outstanding Class Conduct Award for August. Special thanks to their class adviser, Ms. Rhea, for her care and guidance.

Clean and Orderly Classroom Award

The Clean and Orderly Classroom Award recognizes classes that work together to keep their classroom clean, organized, and well cared for. To qualify, a classroom must have no vandalism, no litter left on the floor at the end of the school day, and no personal belongings left behind after dismissal.

This month’s awardees are:

Grade 6 Generosity
In addition to receiving the Outstanding Class Conduct Award, Grade 6 Generosity also earned the Clean and Orderly Classroom Award. Their achievement shows that discipline includes not only proper behavior, but also taking responsibility for one’s surroundings.

Grade 9 Newton
Congratulations to Grade 9 Newton for receiving the Clean and Orderly Classroom Award for August. Their teamwork and effort in maintaining a neat, organized, and responsible classroom environment are worthy of recognition. Special thanks to their class adviser, Ms. Jheryl, for her guidance and support.

Small Habits, Lasting Values

These awards are more than recognition for one month. They reflect the daily choices students make to respect others, follow school rules, care for their classroom, and contribute to a positive learning environment.

To Grade 2 Love, Grade 6 Generosity, Grade 8 Aristotle, and Grade 9 Newton, congratulations on a job well done. May your example encourage other classes to continue developing the same habits of discipline, responsibility, cooperation, and care.

As the saying commonly attributed to St. Francis of Assisi reminds us:

“Start by doing what’s necessary; then do what’s possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”

Keep up the great work, Franciscans!

SIGLAKAS Family Sports Day 2026: A Week of Energy, Unity, and School Spirit at SFAMSC 🎶🏆

Last March 14, 2026, the St. Francis of Assisi Montessori School of Cainta community joyfully celebrated one of the most anticipated highlights of the school year—SIGLAKAS Family Sports Day 2026, the grand culmination of a week-long sports festival filled with excitement, teamwork, and Franciscan school spirit.

Here is the video montage of our Siglakas 2026 activities!

Derived from the words Sigla (energy) and Lakas (strength), SIGLAKAS is more than just a sports event. It is a meaningful school tradition that brings together students, parents, teachers, and families in a celebration of unity, perseverance, friendship, and healthy competition. Throughout the week, learners from Preschool to Junior High School participated in various tournaments and activities that encouraged both athletic excellence and character development.

From volleyball and basketball matches to chess and Scrabble competitions, students demonstrated discipline, teamwork, strategy, and sportsmanship. Each event highlighted not only their growing skills but also their confidence and determination as members of their respective teams.

A Celebration with a Musical Theme 🎵

Adding color and excitement to this year’s SIGLAKAS celebration was its lively music-inspired team theme, which gave each group its own identity, rhythm, and personality:

• ❤️ Team Red  Rock

Throughout the week, these teams proudly represented their musical styles through cheers, costumes, teamwork, and performances that energized the entire school community. The students' creativity and enthusiasm were especially evident during the much-awaited Cheerdance and Yell Competition, the highlight of the final celebration day.

Strengthening the Franciscan Spirit Through Sports and Family Participation

More than medals and trophies, SIGLAKAS Family Sports Day represents the heart of the Franciscan learning experience. It provides students with opportunities to grow in confidence, cooperation, leadership, and resilience while strengthening friendships and deepening their connection with the school community.

The presence and participation of parents made the celebration even more meaningful. Through cheering competitions, family games, and shared moments of joy and encouragement, families became active partners in creating a vibrant and supportive learning environment for their children.

In the spirit of Cura Personalis, or care for the whole person, SIGLAKAS continues to nurture not only physical strength but also character, teamwork, and a sense of community belonging among our learners.

Congratulations to all students, parents, teachers, and teams who made SIGLAKAS Family Sports Day 2026 a joyful and memorable celebration of energy, unity, and Franciscan pride. We look forward to many more years of growing stronger together—with sigla and lakas! 🎉
