Education Week: Building Knowledge for a Better Tomorrow
By: Rhea Mae Torreon
Education Week is a
special school event that celebrates learning, creativity, and student growth.
The purpose of Education Week is to improve and enhance students’ skills in
learning. It helps students grow not only academically, but also socially and creatively.
It gives students the opportunity to present their skills in arts, science,
sports, entrepreneurship, and performances. As a TVL student, it was an amazing
opportunity for me to practice our skills not just socially, but also in
critical thinking. It felt like real practice, especially since we are all
preparing for our Work Immersion. It taught me a lot about cooperation,
leadership, and teamwork.
My experience during
Education Week on November 27–28, 2025, at Badiang National High School was
truly unforgettable. I was able to help sell different kinds of street foods
such as barbecue, chicken intestines, and chicken feet. The campus was full of
energy, and it felt exciting to be part of students who had their own small
booths. We also won Best Booth Award and
Best Christmas Tree Award. It was very
unexpected, especially because we were so busy and did not have enough time to
prepare properly. The preparation was rushed, but thanks to the help of the
HUMSS students, they managed to decorate our booth and made it one of the best
booths on campus. Selling street food taught me a lot—not just about handling
money, but also about being patient and responsible.
What made the
experience even better was the teamwork and laughter with my friends. We
supported each other, helped cook and serve, and enjoyed every moment even when
things became hectic. Handling customers taught me how to be patient and more
understanding during times of pressure. As a TVL student, I learned how to deal
with difficult customers. Based on what I learned in my strand, it is important
to empathize with customers and put yourself in their shoes. These real-world
lessons are just as important as academics.
