Script for Opening Program

Wowie: In a world often divided by differences, sports serve as a bridge that connects
us all. It's a tapestry woven with the threads of passion, dedication, and the unyielding
human spirit. Sport is not merely an occasion to showcase physical prowess but also, it
is a celebration of the values that sports instill in us.

Jero: As we embark on this thrilling journey, let's take a moment to appreciate the
athletes who have dedicated countless hours to honing their skills, pushing their
boundaries, and embodying the true spirit of sportsmanship. Each event you will
witness today is a story of resilience, of triumph over adversity. It's a tale written not just
in the scoreboards but in the sweat, tears, and sacrifices made by every participant.

Wowie: But beyond the competition, sport is a celebration of unity. Look around we
have people from different backgrounds, cultures, and walks of life, bound together by a
common love for the game.

Jero: Sports have a unique way of teaching us invaluable life lessons – the importance
of teamwork,

Wowie: the strength found in unity,

Together: and the resilience required to bounce back from setbacks.

Jero: So, let's savor every moment, soak in the atmosphere, and appreciate the magic
that unfolds before us. I am ______________________

Together: This is the 2024 edition of Unit 1 Sports Festival. Together let us Break
Borders and Build Places

Wowie: To officially commence our festivities, let us stand as one for the Doxology,
presented by the students and teachers of San Teodoro National High School.

Jero: Please remain standing for the singing of the Philippine National Anthem,
MIMAROPA March, Oriental Mindoro Hymn, and San Teodoro Hymn accompanied by
the STCS Drum and Lyre Band, to be conducted by Mrs. Gemma Valdez.

Wowie: Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, esteemed faculty, and cherished
students, it is with immense pleasure and honor that I welcome here in front the
visionary leader, a beacon of inspiration, and the driving force behind our collective
pursuit of educational excellence – our esteemed Coordinating Principal, Mrs. Mirafe I.
Aparato to give her words of welcome.
Jero: Thank you, Ma’am Aparato. Today marks a momentous occasion as we gather to
witness the ceremonious hoisting of banners that symbolize our collective aspirations,
unity, and shared values. This ritual is not merely a display of colors; it is a visual
representation of our identity, purpose, and the spirit that binds us together.

Wowie: In the presence of these banners, we find not just cloth and pigment, but
emblems that capture the essence of our ideals. Each banner tells a story – a narrative
of our journey, our achievements, and the principles we hold dear. As we raise them
high, we amplify our commitment to these principles and declare to the world our unity
in purpose.

Jero: Today, we hoist more than banners; we raise symbols of inspiration, resilience,
and the pursuit of excellence. These emblems flutter in the wind, carrying with them the
hopes and dreams of our community. It is a moment to reflect on our shared history,
celebrate our achievements, and look forward to the promising future that these
banners herald.

Wowie: May we invite our delegation head from Puerto Galera, Baco, and San Teodoro,
to join us in this symbolic ceremony, to hoist the banner high, symbolizing not only our
shared identity but also our collective commitment to a future of shared success and
enduring unity.
