On October 2nd, during our Science Monday, we delved into astronomy and the cosmic connection to our furry friends. Did you know that animals played a unique role in space exploration? From fruit flies to monkeys and even a dog named Laika, animals were early pioneers of space travel, helping scientists better understand the effects of zero gravity and radiation on living organisms. We explored this intriguing chapter of space history, where animals boldly went where no creatures had gone before, paving the way for human spaceflight and scientific discoveries that have continued to shape our understanding of the cosmos.

This October, we’re bringing our learners Astronomy trivia every Monday in celebration of World Space Week 2023 and International Observe the Moon Night 2023 this month.
 
At Bloomfield Academy, where we prioritize science and technology education, we are dedicated to nurturing our learners’ enthusiasm for creativity and exploration. 

That’s why each Monday, we dive into amazing topics, fueling our students’ curiosity and passion for science and technology! #ScienceMonday

We express our utmost gratitude to our BA alumnus, Atty. Rikki Daniele Louis A. Dela Paz, and Ms. Gina Villaflor, our Guidance Counselor, for the highly successful knowledge sessions for our Grades 4-12 students focused on fostering a community free of bullying and promoting values of kindness and respect. Our students actively engaged in these sessions, demonstrating enthusiasm in both asking and responding to questions.

We look forward to continuing these important conversations and initiatives as we unite together to create a more inclusive and compassionate learning community.

Bloomfield Academy students enjoyed an eventful week so far with exciting experiences, including Science Monday, Miting de Avance, and the Student Council Election!

Stay tuned for more exciting updates from your beloved and favorite school!

This year, DepEd reports that bullying in schools has increased through the years. Based on the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), their research reveals that 40 % of Filipino students have often encountered bullying. These numbers align with the reports of the World Health Organization, informing that 40.6% of children between the ages of 13 and 17 have encountered various forms of bullying (Africa, 2023).

How can we contribute to empowering respect and kindness while nurturing a bully-free community? According to UNICEF, the dynamics of bullying involve three roles: the victim, the perpetrator, and the bystander. UNICEF highlights the importance of educating children about bullying to enhance their ability to recognize it, whether they are affected themselves or observing it in others, fostering open dialogues that create safer and more supportive communities, and encouraging them to actively discourage bullying by promoting inclusivity, respect, and kindness and recognizing that they have the power to intervene, question such behaviors, and offer support to their peers in need of help.

At Bloomfield Academy, we firmly believe that by collectively uniting to champion a culture of respect and inclusive community, we can significantly effect profound changes and maintain a learning environment that is safe and nurturing for everyone. On September 29th, our distinguished alumnus, Atty. Rikki Daniele Louis A. Dela Paz, will provide valuable insights to our students about the significant implications of bullying. This will empower them to understand their role in fostering an inclusive learning environment.

Stay tuned for an upcoming online knowledge event tailored for parents/guardians and open to the public!

The campus of Bloomfield Academy is currently the stage for an electrifying showdown as aspiring student leaders campaign vigorously for seats on the Student Council. From impassioned speeches that resonate with their peers to innovative campaign strategies, these candidates are leaving no stone unturned to capture the hearts and votes of their fellow students.

As campaign posters adorn every corner and candidates engage in spirited discussions, it’s clear that democracy is alive and thriving within the school’s halls. Students are not just spectators but active participants in this democratic process, attentive to the candidates’ platforms, asking questions, and envisioning a better future for their beloved academy.

With the race heating up, the question on everyone’s mind is, who will emerge as the future leaders of Bloomfield Academy? Stay tuned for in-depth coverage of this dynamic student council campaign as we follow the candidates on their journey toward making a difference in our school community!

The BA Student Council is a group of students who are elected by their peers to represent the student body. They work closely with school administration to plan events, advocate for student needs, and facilitate communication between students and faculty. It functions as a student-led governing body aimed at cultivating leadership abilities within students. This encourages student empowerment, cultivates positive relationships between the student body and school administration, and ensures the overall well-being of students.

Hey there, Bloomfieldians! As you have learned in our Science Monday activity, your bones are like the superheroes of your body, and they need a special trio of things to become super strong: calcium, Vitamin D, and exercise! 

By giving them these superpowers while you’re young, you’ll stay strong, stand tall, and keep enjoying all your favorite sports and activities as you grow up. 

Say goodbye to slouching and keep rocking your favorite sports and activities!
