🎤 TRIVIA W/ THE DELEGATES 🎤
☀️Before making new summer memories, let’s look back at some memories made from this year’s Association of Benedictine Schools Congress 2024! 🕊️ It’s high-time we test the memory of the members of our Benedictine family with trivia questions bound to get you thinking. Through the ABS Congress, we seized the opportunity to interview Benedictine students from the following schools:
🌟 SSA Pampanga (hosting school), SSA Bacolod, SSC Manila, SSA Marikina, SSA Westgrove, Holy Family Academy, Angeles, and St. Agnes Academy, Legazpi City.
Interviews were held across the campus of SSA-CSFP and the last tour destination at Lakeshore Pampanga. Of course, we can’t forget to dedicate our thanks to Lakeshore’s Mickey Mouse! 💙

🎤 QUALITY TIME WITH THE ABS DELEGATES 🎤
One of the hallmarks taught to us as Benedictine children is the hallmark of Hospitality. No better way to accommodate to the delegates through conversation and a good old-fashioned interview. 💙
While taking a break ⚡️ from the stimulating activities prepared for them, the Blue Quill members took it upon themselves to socialize 🫂 with the delegates. They were able to take a dive into how the delegates perceived their respective schools and their first impression of ours. The following schools participated:
🗣️ SSA Pampanga (hosting school), SSA Bacolod, SSC Manila, SSA Marikina, SSA Westgrove, Holy Family Academy, Angeles, and St. Agnes Academy, Legazpi City.

SCHOLASTICAN MEMORY LOG NO. 3
🎥 Let's rewind the tapes to The Blue Quill's exclusive interview with Former Pampanga Governor Eduardo "Among Ed" Panlilio regarding the launch of the Angat Pampanga Association Inc.💗
Among Ed candidly shared his insights on the initiative, recounting its conception and his personal interactions with Atty. Leni Robredo. However, he did not confine himself solely to the topic of Angat Pampanga; instead, he tackled broader aspects of leadership and life experiences, offering sensible wisdom.💡

Grade school and high school teaching and non-teaching personnel of SSASF thrillingly ended their week last September 23 through a Sportsfest. Before starting the friendly competition, they loosened up by doing a Zumba exercise led by ZIN Jeffrey Villanueva, a former Universal Dance member.
For the Volleyball's first set, the NTP won by four points, 25-21. Nonetheless, the HS faculty recovered from their loss by winning the second set with a score of 25-12. Once more, the HS faculty won the third set as a tiebreaker, 25-16.
