The Guidance Center held a seminar, “𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘴 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘴: 𝘙𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘔𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘩 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘕𝘶𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘝𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘵 𝘏𝘰𝘮𝘦,” for 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗕𝗘𝗗) 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 on September 12, 2026, and for 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗛𝗘𝗗) 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 on September 19, 2026.

The sessions helped parents recognize mental health concerns and understand how values develop through everyday interactions at home. More than recognizing signs of concern, the discussions emphasized the importance of creating an environment where children feel heard, respected, guided, and supported.

The meaningful insights shared throughout the sessions were made possible through the generosity and expertise of our resource speaker, the President of Philippine Guidance and Counseling Association (PGCA) - Zamboanga City Chapter 𝗗𝗿. 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗶 𝗝𝗼𝘆 𝗕𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗳𝗲, 𝗥𝗚𝗖, whose time, knowledge, and thoughtful perspectives gave our parents valuable points to reflect on and bring into their homes. We also extend our sincere appreciation to the school administrators, teachers, guidance staff, and everyone behind the scenes whose support and efforts helped make these sessions possible.

We are especially grateful to our BED and HED parents for taking the time to participate and engage in these conversations. Your willingness to learn and reflect on your role in your children’s lives helps build a supportive home environment.

The seminar reminded us that the values we model, the conversations we have, and how we respond to our children can shape how they understand themselves and relate to others. Through intentional parenting and meaningful partnership with the school, we can help create spaces where children are guided not only to succeed, but also to grow with compassion, resilience, and a strong sense of worth.

Minsan, hindi natin kailangang magkaroon ng tamang mga salita. Isang yakap, isang pakikinig, o simpleng presensya ay maaaring maging paalala sa isang taong tahimik na lumalaban na hindi siya nag-iisa.

Sa bawat ngiti na nakikita natin, may mga kwentong hindi natin alam. Kaya piliin nating maging mas maunawain, mas mapagmalasakit, at mas handang umabot sa kapwa.

Ngayong World Su***de Prevention Month, ipaalala natin na mahalaga ang buhay, may pag-asa, at may mga taong handang makinig at umalalay.

Maging yakap sa panahong mabigat.
Maging liwanag sa panahong madilim.
Maging dahilan upang maramdaman ng iba na mahalaga sila.

Hindi kailangang lumaban nang mag-isa 🤍

On June 18, 2026, the Guidance Center conducted an orientation for Basic Education advisers on guidance services and homeroom implementation in alignment with this school year's theme, Nurturing Compassion, Discernment, and Hope.

The orientation provided advisers with an overview of the Guidance Center's programs and services, as well as their vital role in fostering a supportive and nurturing classroom environment.
As frontliners in student development, advisers play an important part in promoting students' academic success, personal growth, and overall well-being.

May this shared commitment to compassion, discernment, and hope inspire us to create learning spaces where every student feels valued, supported, and empowered to thrive.

📸 Here are some highlights from the orientation!
