By Princess Janneah Matta, Maria Paemma Medina, & Sabrina-Aiko Santos

It is a day of fun and overload activities on the 104th Founding Anniversary of Jose Rizal University - Junior High School Day last February 16 at the JRU Quadrangle with the theme “Talentong Rizal: Employees and Students Collab Day.” the Junior High School, said that the JHS evening presentation is a night and play dedicated to a great alumnus who brought life and color to the stage that had passed away, Jeremy Jay Villegas.

The JHS students showcased their Talentong Rizal for the morning presentation through dancing TikTok crazes, followed by their band performances in the song competition.

Eventually, there was a collaboration between the employees and students presented in the afternoon. They were singing, dancing, and modeling.

Ms. Martin added, “Alam nating lahat na ang isang presentation ay nagsisimula sa isang direktor’s note.” She then stated all his creations over the past years, such as Lion King, Isang Siglo, and lastly, before the beginning of the pandemic, Once on This Island.

“Isang malaking kawalan ng paglisan sa mundong ito, siya ang dahilan kung bakit walang magaganap na direktor’s note, ngayong oras na ito. Sa aming direk Jay, maraming-maraming salamat sa lahat ng alaala, sa mga masasayang alaala na buklod sa mga Rizaliano noon at ngayon. Kaya gabing ito ay alay namin para sayo.”

The JHS Division prepared a stage play for the evening presentation entitled “Pluma: Tanglaw at Pag-asa.” Mrs. Grace Marie B. Martin, The Principal of University Week - JHS Day Jose Rizal University FB Page
