In behalf of the Science Subject Area of St. Alphonsus Catholic school, it is with great honor and pleasure
that I welcome you to the Culminating activity of the Science month and the Final round of the Trashion
show seasonal collection.
Perhaps the most defining characteristic of this year’s theme is SEASON. ??????
This month, you had the chance to engage and to learn about science by inquiry through the different
interactive stations that were prepared by the Senior Highschool students as manifestations of their
transfer of learning.
You, yourselves just like the busy bees who are silently working in the trashion show costume and in your
bulletin board.
“Learning is not an expectator sport. It is an active, not passive enterprise. Accordingly, a learning
environment must strive, even demand, the active engagement of the learner.”
We encourage you to think critically and reflectively about the world around you.
Clean up drive.?????
This will empower the young Alphonsians to act responsibly for a better community.
Once again, I would like to extend my gratitude to all those in one way or another help these events
possible.
especially to you, my dear students, We look forward to our continued collaboration and partnership in
developing yourselves not only in becoming scientifically literate but more so as members of a humane
society.
Let us continue our journey at SACS for the Greater Glory of God and for the service of our country and
fellowmen.
Welcome and have a fruitful and enjoyable Science Month Culminating activity!
Just like seasons, people have the ability to change.
I am very pleased to welcome you all to this year’s IAEA Scientific Forum.
This year, we are considering Atoms in Industry. We will examine the ways in
which nuclear techniques are used to help create items which we often take
for granted in our daily lives.
I suspect that everyone in this room has a smart phone. These and other
electronic products use high-performance rechargeable batteries. The
batteries contain a separator membrane designed to give them longer life.
Radiation is routinely used to produce this special membrane.
Other items which are treated or tested with radiation during manufacturing
include buildings, cables, computers, car parts and medical devices.
During the next two days you will hear many examples of what these behind-
the-scenes technologies can do.
I will mention a few.
