Relative to this, ACTS Computer College held a three-day activity which happened on July 22-24, 2019. The said dates were the particular schedule for the competitions: the Poster Slogan Making Contest, the Cooking and Salad Making Contest and the Jingle Making Contest. Each category was participated by the students of Grade 11 and Grade 12 Senior High School students.

On July 22, 2019, Monday, the day for the competition of the Poster-Slogan making contest. There were 18 students coming from different strands who showed how skillful and artistic they were. They were given two hours to finish the said activity. Out from the computed criteria, a Grade 12 student from Humanities and Social Sciences Strand got the place. Congratulations to Ms. Claire Ann B. Gonzaga.

Then on the next day, the selected students from different strands competed for the cooking and salad making contest. Each of them prepared their best recipe. For cooking part, they were only allowed to choose two among these main ingredients: Malunggay, Bitter Gourd, Lady’s Finger, Tomato and Squash. Then, for salad making contest ingredients, it was their choice. All were served and explained well but among these two groups stood out because of their unique food presentation.
