The Department of Education Regional Office IX, under the leadership of Regional Director Ruth L. Fuentes, CESO III and Assistant Regional Director Gregorio Cyrus R. Elejorde, CESO V, proudly joins the nation in celebrating Nutrition Month 2025 with the theme: “Food and Nutrition Security Maging Priority! Sapat na Pagkain, Karapatan Natin!”
This year’s theme highlights the urgent need to prioritize access to safe, nutritious, and sufficient food for every Filipino. As educators and advocates of lifelong health and learning, we reaffirm our commitment to promoting food and nutrition security in schools, homes, and communities.
To kick off the celebration(monthlong), the Regional Office conducted “BRAINY BITES: Nutrition Edition – Elimination Round,” a short and engaging nutrition quiz facilitated by Ms. Shulamite Grace Amores, Regional Nutritionist-Dietitian. The activity aimed to raise awareness among RO personnel about essential nutrition facts and encourage healthier lifestyle choices in the workplace.
Let us continue to work together to raise awareness, inspire action, and uphold the rights of every learner and family to adequate nutrition. Because when we nourish minds and bodies, we build a stronger, healthier nation!
Sapat na pagkain, hindi pribilehiyo — ito ay karapatan ng bawat isa!
Happy birthday to all the July celebrants!
