Sison’s New Library

OMom on Feb 28th 2008

I’m so excited to read about the new Sison Library, most especially the kid’s corner with the new supplies of donated books from Mayor Cojuangco’s US supporters and friends. If you haven’t read about it yet, visit the Sison website for the article.

Sison Library
Talking about libraries, the Sagunto Friendship Association of London headed by Mr. Judee Digay are currently supervising the creation of our very own Sagunto Library that will be housed in the community hall (”Abong”). It is so exciting to think that the barangay will soon have a place where the children can learn and read in peace. If you would like to donate books for the library, please contact the SFAL President at rdigay@sfal.org.uk or click on the Friends of the Star link on the sidebar of this website.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Let’s give the children a bit of a hand to ensure that their minds are not wasted.

Sagunto Star Vol2-2, Pgs 2 & 3

Jeanette on Feb 24th 2008

As with many towns in the Philippines, the Overseas Foreign Worker (OFW) have become prevalent as are the spouses they leave behind to care for the children and the home. Twenty years ago, OFWs and their families were featured on the original pages of the Sagunto Star; now, the children of the families mentioned here are themselves OFWs or have migrated abroad.

In this issue’s editorial, Mr. Bernardo Castillo, originator of the Sagunto Star, states:
“We in Sagunto must be the first ones to be aware of the issues of the day and think and feel and act on them with wisdom and concern and compassion for the good of our fellowmen, the glory of our nation and the love of our God.”

A very fitting advice for this anniversary week of the online version of the Sagunto Star.
