In celebration of the Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa this August 2021, the Junior High School, spearheaded by Filipino Learning Area held a series of virtual competitions among students to further heighten their skills in our native languages.
The theme for this year's celebration is "Filipino at mga Katutubong Wika sa Dekolonisasyon ng Pag-iisip ng mga Pilipino" (Filipino and the Indigenous Peoples' language on the decolonization of the Filipino mindset) which strives to remind students about their language, culture, and identity as a Filipino.
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, CKSCians became very creative in their celebration of the event – thanks to the artistic and resourceful teachers and admin of the school.
For the Junior High School students, numerous participants from Grade 7 to Grade 10 took part in different competitions such as Tularawan, Spoken Word Poetry, Masining na Pagkukwento, Tiktok Challenge Competition and Tagis-Talino which has been the main event of the celebration.
On the final day of the celebration, all Junior High School teachers wore Filipino costumes to remind them of the significance of the affair, wherein selected male and female teachers were awarded as "Natatanging Kasuotang Pilipino" and one learning area was chosen as "Pinakanatatanging Pangkat."
For the first time since the pandemic, Chiang Kai Shek College started virtual activities in celebration of the Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa that was enjoyable and surely one that emphasized the importance of our national and indigenous languages and culture.
