Colegio San Agustin-Mati Inc. launches the Holy Rosary Month with a novena mass, with its main celebrant Rev. Fr. Jan Mark A. Placido, OSA, held at the school lobby today, October 1, 2024.

In his homily, Fr. Placido talked about the life of two of the most well-known women in the church: Saint Thรฉrรจse of the Child Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary. Their stories serve as an inspiration in showing our faith to God.

"You don't need to do big things to be close to God. You just need to do small things with love....,โ€ Fr. Placido said.

Moreover, students have given flowers to Virgin Mary, and Fr. Placido led the blessing for the students and teachers celebrating their birthday for the month of October.

The mass ended filled with love and gratitude, reminding us how the Holy Rosary brings us closer to God.

Colegio San Agustin celebrates Second Monthly Mass

On September 27, 2024, Colegio San Agustin-Mati Inc. celebrated its second monthly mass at the school lobby.

The mass was presided by Rev. Fr. Leo Mario F. Singco, OSA., with concelebrating priest Rev. Fr. Jan Mark A. Placido, OSA.

In his homily, Fr. Leo quoted, "The harvest is abundant, but the laborers are few." He shared that the master of the harvest is our Lord God, and in the Church, the prophets, apostles, bishops, priests, and sisters are considered laborers, while we are the harvest. He emphasized that we are often imprisoned by anger, and that true mercy involves letting go of that anger. We are like a sheep without it's shepherd.

The mass concluded with gratitude and blessing for everyone who have celebrated their birthday this month.

Colegio San Agustin-Mati, Inc. has launched a test-run of its new Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system today, September 4, 2024. This system, which will be implemented for students from Preschool to Grade 12, is designed to enhance monitoring and to ensure a safer school environment.

Each student will have an RFID tag embedded in their ID cards. To track attendance, students will use designated machines installed in the school lobby to swipe their IDs, with separate machines for time-in and time-out. Additionally, parents and guardians will receive notifications of their child's entry and exit from the school.

Today's trial of the RFID system at CSA-Mati has been a success, paving the way for its full implementation. The school is enthusiastic about advancing with this technology to enhance student safety and security. By integrating the RFID system into daily operations, CSA-Mati aims to provide greater peace of mind for the parents,guardians, and staff, ensuring that students remain safeguarded during school hours.

Kulminasyon ng Buwan ng Wika

Sa makulay na selebrasyon na ginanap noong Agosto 29, 2024 sa bulwagan ng Colegio San Agustin-Mati, Inc., matagumpay na idinaos ang kulminasyon ng Buwan ng Wika na may temang "Filipino: Wikang Mapagpalaya." Masiglang nakiisa sa pagdiriwang ang mga estudyante ng preschool hanggang sa mga nasa Senyor Hayskul kasama ang mga g**o at mga tagapangasiwa ng paaralan.

Naging tampok ng programa ang parada ng mga estudyante na nagsuot ng kanilang pinakamagandang kasuotang Pilipino. Ang bawat baitang, mula sa preschool hanggang sa mga estudyante ng Senyor Hayskul, ay nagpakita ng kanilang natatanging disenyo at istilo ng kasuotan.

Sa kalagitnaan ng programa, pinarangalan ang mga nagwagi sa iba't ibang kompetisyon na isinagawa sa buong buwan.

Sa Elementarya, namukod-tangi ang mga mag-aaral na nagpakita ng kanilang husay sa mga patimpalak ng pagsulat ng sanaysay, tagisan ng talino, masining na pagtula, pagbabahagi ng mga kwento, pag kanta (isahan at duweto), balagtasan, pagguhit ng kamay, at poster making.

Sa Hayskul at Senyor Hayskul naman, ipinamalas ng mga estudyante ang kanilang kagalingan sa mga paligsahan ng pagpipinta, tagisan ng talino, pagsulat ng sanaysay at tula, balagtasan, pag kanta (isahan at duweto), at katutubong sayaw.

Ang mga nagwagi ay binigyang parangal at binigyan ng mga sertipiko bilang pagkilala sa kanilang husay at talento.

Ginawaran din ng pagkilala ang mga nanalo sa family day/larong pinoy na ginanap noong ika-28 ng Agosto, 2024. Ang mga sumusunod ay ang mga nanalo: sa departamento ng elementarya, nakamit ng unang baitang ang ikatlong pwesto (3rd Place), ang ika-anim na baitang ang nakakamit sa ikalawang pwesto (2nd place), at ang nakakuha ng unang pwesto (1st place) ay ikalawang baitang.

Sa departmento naman ng Hayskul, naging kampyon (Champion) ang ikalabing-dalawang baitang (Gr12), nasa ikalawang pwesto (2nd place) ang baitang siyam (Gr9), at nasa ikatlong pwesto (3rd place) and mga nasa baitang ikawalo (Gr8). Sa mga hindi pinapagpala ay nabigyan pa rin ng apresasyon sa kanilang dedikasyon at partisipasyon.

Sa pagtatapos ng kulminasyon, nagsilbing paalala ito sa lahat ng kahalagahan ng ating wika hindi lamang bilang paraan ng pakikipag-usap, kundi bilang simbolo ng ating pambansang kalayaan.

On August 28, 2024, Colegio San Agustin-Mati, Inc. continued its Family Day celebration with a fun-filled Pinoy Larong Lahi event, where students, parents, and teachers played traditional Filipino games. It started with Pop the Balloon, followed by Kadang-Kadang and the Sack Race on the school grounds. Everyone was excited and enjoyed the games, cheering each other and having a great time together.

The next games proceeded in the school lobby where the fun continued with the Harina Relay and the Talong and Kamatis Relay. These games were both challenging and entertaining, as participants tried their best to complete each race without dropping anything. Laughter and smiles were everywhere as everyone joined in the activities.

Before the day ended, bits of euphoria blasted through the air with the basketball for girls held at the schoolโ€™s court. The players did the work with energy and teamwork, making the crowd cheer with unparalleled enthusiasm.

Overall, the event was not just about playing games, but about bringing everyone together, celebrating Filipino traditions, and creating unforgettable memories one would truly treasure.

By examining St. Augustineโ€™s life and writings, we are encouraged for a renewed commitment to prayer and spiritual growth, aligning with the year's theme of encouraging a closer, more strong connection with the divine.

Included in the Mass was the intercession of the image of St. Augustine and St. Monica, and the installation of the new members of Cofradia del Sto. Niรฑo de Cebu-Mati Chapter.

Viva San Agustin!
