SFAMSC Scouting Bonfire Yell SY 2024-2025

The SFAMSC Bonfire Yell is one of the most anticipated highlights of the annual SFAMSC Scouting Camporee for Grades 4 to 10. Each year, scouts receive a theme that connects them to their Filipino heritage. The theme can focus on historical landmarks, national events, or Filipino heroes. This year, the chosen theme was traditional Filipino values, encouraging scouts to celebrate and express the values that shape their culture and identity.

Each patrol was assigned a specific Filipino value, and their yells and choreography were crafted to reflect that value. The scouts brought these values to life through creative lyrics, energetic movements, and strong teamwork, showcasing their spirit and pride in carrying forward these important cultural lessons. The Bonfire Yell was a vibrant display of unity, respect, and joy, bringing everyone together around the shared pride in the SFAMSC community of our Filipino roots.

On October 18, in honoring the Month of the Holy Rosary, St. Francis of Assisi Montessori School of Cainta (SFAMSC) was blessed with a visit from the image of Our Lady of Fatima, brought from Our Lady of Light Parish. Each October, the image of Mother Mary visits selected institutions in Cainta as part of a special tradition to spread devotion and blessings.

At SFAMSC, the image was placed at the altar in our Activity Center, where students and staff gathered to pray the rosary. It was a moment of deep reflection and unity, as the school community honored the Blessed Mother and embraced her presence.
