The Lorma Schools

21/10/2026

Our community came together on the dance floor, where every step, every smile, and every beat showed what it means to belong. Faculty, staff, and friends of LORMA Colleges shared one rhythm and one spirit. When Lormanians dance together, we celebrate more than movement.

We celebrate connection, joy, and the strength of a community that grows together.

💚 A Message to Our Lormanian Family

Today, let’s pause and thank one another.

Thank you to the people we see every day: our teachers, our staff, our students, our leaders, and everyone who quietly makes LORMA what it is. We are not just an institution. We are a family.

This is the essence of Founders’ Day. It is what our founders dreamed of, and what they want this generation to know: that we are strongest when we care for one another, and that gratitude is what keeps a family together.

Happy Founders’ Day, Lormanians! Thank you, and may we always remain One LORMA, One Family.

Today, October 21, 2026, the LORMA family gathered at the Campus for Health Sciences for the blessing of the Gazebo and the Pond, two new spaces made for rest, reflection, and togetherness.

The Prayer Gazebo is designed after the Prayer Gazebo of the Founders in Carlatan and the Ancestral House of the Lorenzana Family in Tagudin, Ilocos Sur. A tribute to the roots of Dr. Crispina Lorenzana Macagba, co-founder of LORMA Inc. alongside her husband, Dr. Rufino Macagba Sr. Their vision gave rise to an institution built on service, education, and family, and this space carries that legacy forward, bringing the warmth of a peaceful seaside village into the heart of our campus.

May these spaces remain places where Lormanians find calm, connection, and inspiration, just as our founders intended.

Honoring our founders. Blessing our home. Growing as one LORMA family.

Touch the Sky wasn’t only a night under the stars. 🌌

While the night sky drew the crowd, the afternoon program was just as important. It was a full day for learners, timed for World Space Week and World Blindness Awareness Month.

Through a round-robin of the senses, participants experienced space in ways that don’t depend on sight:

See: a space science lecture with live audio description and tactile handouts
Touch: real meteorite specimens, tactile solar-system models, and Braille and raised-line star charts
Smell: a sniff station recreating planetary and space scents
Hear: sonification astronomy and Balatik/Filipino sky-lore storytelling
Taste: a space-food tasting merienda

The universe belongs to everyone, and the night sky shouldn’t be something only sighted people get to enjoy. When science is designed to be touched, heard, smelled, and tasted, it stops being a privilege and becomes a shared experience. That’s what inclusive education looks like: not adjusting people to the learning, but building the learning around people.

Thank you to HIRAYA, PSSAR Inc., RTU, Balik Balatik, Manila Street Astronomers, UPB AstroSoc, and Ms. Kristine Atienza for making both the afternoon and the night unforgettable.

Relive the best moments of LORMA Colleges Intramurals 2026: the cheers, the competition, and the colors of every team giving their all on the field and the court.

Beyond the medals and rankings, Intramurals is where we build a Culture of Wellbeing. It’s where students stay active, form friendships across colleges, and learn sportsmanship, resilience, and leadership that carry into the classroom and the profession.

Congratulations to all participants, champions, and teams, and thank you to the organizers, coaches, officials, and everyone who cheered from the sidelines. 👏

Watch the full highlights here. 🎥
