Mental health has become a significant concern among students. It affects their performance, relationships, and overall well-being. Many learners experience mental health struggles for different reasons. Recognizing the need to raise awareness, our group developed the āBe a Little Kinder Campaign.ā
Our mission is to promote mental health awareness and encourage students to practice small acts of kindness intentionally and consistently. Our vision is to help create a school environment where kindness becomes a natural habit and where every student feels safe, valued, and supported. Our group believes that mental health is just as important as academic success. Through this concept paper, we aim to present the importance of our advocacy and explain how this campaign can create a positive impact on the school community. We hope to show how simple acts of kindness can contribute to a healthier and more compassionate environment.
II. Purpose
The purpose of our campaign is to raise awareness about the importance of mental health and to show how acts of kindness can greatly improve someoneās well-being. Many students experience academic pressure, personal problems, and emotional stress. School can feel overwhelming, especially when responsibilities and personal challenges pile up. There are also situations involving bullying, misunderstandings, and feelings of isolation. Despite these struggles, not everyone feels comfortable sharing what they are going through. Some students even begin to lose the motivation to attend school.
This project is worth supporting because it encourages positive behavior and strengthens relationships within the school. The campaign reminds students that everyone is dealing with their own problems, and kindness can help create a more understanding and supportive environment. It also teaches that kindness does not require big or complicated actions. Even small efforts can create positive change. When students treat one another with kindness, it helps reduce bullying and loneliness. It encourages empathy, which allows students to connect, support each other, and grow together. This leads to stronger friendships, better teamwork inside the classroom, and a more positive school atmosphere overall.
In conclusion, our goal is to show students that mental health matters and that they have the ability to make a positive difference in someoneās life.
III. Description
The āBe a Little Kinder Campaignā will include the following activities:
1. School Event: This will include interactive activities such as a "Kindness Booth" where students can offer or receive free hugs and compliments, and everyone will receive a flower or a sticky note with a motivating quote. There will also be a "Wall of Positivity" for writing supportive messages.Ā
2. Journaling Program: Participants will receive free journals to record their daily acts of kindness and reflect on how these actions affect their mood or the well-being of others. Group facilitators will organize an optional sharing session to discuss journal entries, fostering self-awareness, and highlighting journaling as a valuable coping tool for mental health challenges.Ā
3. Motivational Posters and Signages: We will create posters with positive messages about self-love, mental health, and kindness. These will be placed around hallways, classrooms, and bulletin boards to inspire students every day.Ā
4. Mental Health Seminar: Our group will organize a short seminar that discusses basic mental health concepts, coping strategies, and the importance of seeking help when needed. The seminar will be delivered by a teacher, guidance counselor, or a trained student speaker. This activity aims to educate students and help them become more aware of their own well-being.Ā Ā

Our province, Laguna, is now under a suspension of all face-to-face classes from October 14 to October 31, 2025, for all levels in both public and private schools. The order was given by Sol Aragones, our governor, as a precaution due to recent seismic activity and to allow school buildings and infrastructure to be inspected for safety.
Our Realization and Reflection:Ā
Sa suspension na to, may dalawang side akong naintindihanā may pros at may cons. Yung pros, syempre para sa kaligtasan natin. Mas okay na rin na maging handa kung sakaling mangyari yung āBig One.ā Maganda rin na may sinusuri kung matibay at maayos ba talaga yung mga infrastructure ng mga paaralan dito sa Laguna. At least, safe tayo sa bahay kung sakaling may mangyaring masama. Pero yung cons, bilang estudyante, mahirap talaga. Parang bumalik ulit sa lockdown dahil online class na naman. Nahihirapan din kami kasi naghahabol pa kami sa āDepEd standards of learning,ā tapos nadagdagan pa ng suspension na āto. Kung ako ang papipiliin, mas gugustuhin ko pa rin yung onsite class, kahit may kaakibat na disgrasya. Kasi sa school, may social life, may mga kaibigan, at mas nakakagana mag-aral. Sa bahay kasi, ang hirap mag-isa. Doon ko narealize na hindi lang pala aral ang mahalaga, kundi yung pakikipag-ugnayan sa ibang tao na nagbibigay sigla sa pag-aaral.

I felt frustrated upon learning about the suspension, as I realized we'll need to catch up once classes start again. It's disheartening, too, with all the events unfolding around us these days. I'm hoping and praying that things will go smoothly and we won't have to deal with the same problems from the past. As for online classes, I'm not comfortable with them anymore, since they honestly cause me headaches and leave me feeling exhausted. Bangay, Princess T. (10/13/25 - 11:16 AM)
To be completely honest, I wasnāt that satisfied when I first heard the news about the 2-week suspension. Online classes just do not compare to onsite classes for me. I always feel so disconnected during online classes and have a harder time learning. The atmosphere is way different because of all the possible distractions, as well. In addition, we had a field trip scheduled just the day before the suspension was announced. That definitely didnāt bode well since there have already been past delays to our field trip before, so hearing the news just felt like a smack in the face. Other than that, I have seen some discourse and concerns online regarding the suspension. Some are hoping that there are plans of actions from our government such as building assessments, while the students are away from their schools; otherwise, this would just be pointless and a hindrance to their studies. I somewhat do agree with these discussions since so many events scheduled have been cancelled due to this suspension. Moreover, I wish safety for all residents of Laguna and of our country during these times. Mansueto, Uno Aldryl Y. (10/20/25 - 3:39 PM)
Honestly, nung nalaman ko na for almost two weeks na online classes medyo nainis ako. Kase who would want to spend two weeks learning online? Definitely not me, as someone who endured almost two years of pure online classes due to the pandemic. Pero I also knew Gov. Solās reason why she had to cancel classes, but still. Though the reason was for our own safety and protection, its just disheartening to not be able to go to school. Especially since there were a lot of activities lined-up during the canceled weeks. Yung field trip, pre-finals, investiture and day camp, FUSION, Intrams (that THANKFULLY TALAGA hindi naurong ulet.); ang daming activities na hindi natuloy. And much more sa academics na kailangan naming habulin once face-to-face classes resume next month. Wishing and praying na everything would be okay na para makabalik na kami sa school. Matutina, Hermiel Maxine P. (10/20/25 - 1:36 PM)
Last Monday, when I found out na suspended for two weeks ang face-to-face classes, my initial thought was that this would be a good opportunity magpahinga nang mahaba-haba. Pero at the same time, hindi ko rin ito gusto. I agree with what others say na mas masarap at mas effective pa rin mag-aral onsite. Mas nakakapag-focus ako sa lessons, and at the same time, nakakapag-socialize pa ako with my classmates. Unlike online classes na ang daming distractions, and nakakabuang din minsan kasi puro screen lang ang kaharap ko buong araw. Also, naisip ko how packed November will be because of this suspension. Ang daming events na na-move, and Iām sure magsasabay-sabay ang mga events, deadlines, and activities pagbalik namin sa face-to-face. Itās going to be a very busy month. But despite all that, I understand and respect the decision of our Governor. Alam kong ginawa ito para sa kaligtasan namin, and itās better to be safe and prepared than to risk anything. I am wishing for everyoneās safety, and I hope na hindi natin maranasan ang malakas na lindol na nangyari a few days ago sa ilang mga lugar. Mobilla, Gabriele Grace R. (10/22/25 - 9:53 PM)
To be honest, I've prepared myself for the multiple events to occur within the month, like for example our field trip, the bsp investiture, and the pre-finals examination, but never have i been so dissapointed enough by a suspension. I was shocked, it was Monday, October 13th, We we're practicing for our cheerdance on ffp hall, and i was flabbergasted by the news that there was a 2-week suspension, which meant that our field trip the next day was cancelled, As well as the other events planned for the month, My thought for this is that yes, it is quite frustrating to think that for 2-weeks we will be stranded at home, but for me, It's an opportunity, We were compacted with a lot of school activities, and having the chance to do that at home makes it easier to accomplish, while ensuring that my family and myself were safe from harm, at the same time, it will be easier to rest, because I'm the type of person who's not really at home that much, So being able to spend time at home with my family, and at the same time prepare myself for the month of november, Is a great way for me to recover. But despite all of that, Our country right now is facing many difficulties regarding the earthquakes, and natural disasters, For me it was a wise decision from our Governor to suspend, to ensure that all filipino people in the province of laguna and their families are safe. Once again, many people would abstain with me, pero ito ay nakabase lamang sa opinyon ko, Ipagpatuloy po parin natin ang pagiging handa para sa mga sakuna na ito, at tayo'y magdasal para sa ating bansa na maging ligtas sa kapahamakan, at para sa mga kapwa nating pilipino na naapektuhan dahil sa kalamidad na ito. Manatiling ligtas, Manatiling Alerto. Velasco, Jao Terrence L. (10/23/25 - 8:06 PM)
It was during our practice when I heard the news, to be honest na badtrip ako at nalungkot kasi andaming events and plans para sa month ng October kaso ayun suspended and it feels like the time stopped. Now, balik online class kami and itās not really working for me. Iām having a hard time catching up, and I feel so unmotivated. But what I realized about our current situation is that the suspension of classes is not just for our safety but also a moment for us to reflect. These days, there is so much happening on earth and here in the Philippines: corruption, eruptions of volcanoes, earthquakes, fire, landslides, frequent bomb threats in schools, and more. It feels like cruelty is everywhere, whether online or in real life, people are hurting and even losing their lives because of it. I think the world is too cruel now because of us, and perhaps the time that has been given to us is our reminder to reflect and spread goodness around us. We only live once, and it could come to an end at any moment, so now try to live your life every day to its fullest and donāt do things that you might regret. I believe that every sunrise is another chance for us while sunsets are proof that we have fought through it and keep going. A lot of bad things happen right now and there must be a good reason behind it. STAY SAFE!!! @EVERYONEā¦
Letās all stay safe, stay connected, and keep moving forward. Even though we wonāt be sitting together in class for a while, our learning, our ideas, and our team spirit wonāt stop.
āSometimes, the world pauses not to stop us, but to make us see what truly matters.ā Mijares, Mary Flor (10/24/25 - 2:11 PM)
