HOW TO SPEND TIME WITH FRIENDS ON HOLIDAYS 

By Teacher Jelle

Holidays in the Philippines are treasured moments filled with laughter, food, and heartfelt connection — seasons where friendships are celebrated like family and traditions shine with joy and unity.

One of the most anticipated holidays is New Year’s Day, bursting into life with fireworks, festive meals, and hopeful cheers. After midnight, friends often exchange warm wishes, eat leftovers from Media Noche (a grand midnight feast), and visit one another’s homes for a salubong — a joyful welcome to the year ahead. 

In January, the Sinulog Festival in Cebu comes alive not just as a religious event, but as a colorful celebration of friendship and heritage. Friends join parades, dance to the rhythm of drums, wear vibrant costumes, and paint each other’s faces for fun. At the heart of the festival is Santo Niño — the Child Jesus — a symbol of faith, innocence, and divine protection.  

Each celebration is more than a date — it’s a living memory shared. As Filipinos, we carry pakikisama — a deep sense of harmony and connection. And during the holidays, that spirit glows brightest. Because in our culture, presence is the most precious present.

Introduction of new banknotes
By Teacher Yen

Cash Back in Time: Philippine Banknotes Got Their Glow-Up

When visiting the Philippines, you’ll quickly notice something special about the cash in your pocket—it’s colorful, full of faces and landmarks you might not recognize, and packed with stories that go far beyond their monetary value. But Philippine banknotes aren’t just pieces of currency—they’re pieces of history, culture, and national pride. From vintage portraits to sleek modern designs, these bills are like mini postcards from the past and present.

High-Tech Bills, Filipino Style

Modern Philippine banknotes—especially the new polymer ones—include:

•See-through windows with native flora designs

•Color-shifting ink and detailed print patterns

•Tactile marks to help people with visual impairments

•Holographic features that add both style and security

These changes make our currency not just smarter, but also more inclusive and visually engaging. By evolving its currency, the Philippines is blending tradition with technology, security with sustainability, and legacy with a forward-looking vision.
