The Estoile finally brings home the rock!
The Estoile, the official school and community publication of St. Edward School (SES), is the Best Student Organ - Grade School of the 43rd Catholic Mass Media Awards (CMMA) held via CNN Philippines, December 26.
In his speech, school paper adviser Paul Jeffrey Penaflor recognized "every campus journalist of St. Edward School for accepting the challenge in telling the stories of hope, compassion, and nobility despite the adversities brought about by the pandemic." "Through the campus media, we will continue to serve as catalysts for social transformation," Mr. Penaflor added.
Anchored on the school's core values of faith, integrity, stewardship, and hard work, this year's issue of The Estoile celebrates the 500 years of Christianity in the Philippines. CMMA is the country's most prestigious Catholic award-giving body in print, radio, and television.

Campus journos receive INKpowerment kit, prizes
The participants of the INKpowerment Year 3 during the School Break Program last August have claimed their prizes and campus journalism kit after completing the week-long series of workshops. The prizes include medals and certificates which were awarded for best outputs and most outstanding students.
Meanwhile, the campus journalism kit includes learning modules and copies of school papers, which the participants can use as they continue to attend the said program. Now on its third year, the INKpowerment aims to train aspiring and continuing campus journalists of St. Edward School (SES) with necessary journalistic skills that they can use in their academics and future careers.
The program is also open to Non-SES students. In addition, the school and community publications of SES, The Estoile, Ang Estrelya and The Edwardian Quill, see the need to promote campus journalism in the school and community level in the time of “infodemic.” Infodemic, as defined by the World Health Organization, refers to the time of “too much information including false or misleading information in digital and physical environments during a disease outbreak.”

St. Edward School (SES) publications distributed learning modules to campus journalists from public schools who are enrolled under the modular distance learning.
The learning modules covering basic campus journalism topics will be part of the Department of Education’s (DepEd) Brigada Pagbasa, a program that seeks to enhance the skills of Filipino children who can read and improve their comprehension in the time of Covid-19 pandemic.
Among the schools that received the learning modules are Alapan I Elementary School, Gov. Ferrer Memorial National High School, and Imus National High School. Meanwhile, Dr. Leticia A. Rogacion, Education Program Supervisor in English of DepEd – Imus City, lauded SES’ initiatives in promoting campus journalism in the community in her speech during the culminating activity of INKpowerment under the school break program last August 13.
The school continues to open its campus journalism program to all students through the INKpowerment, which is now in its third year.
