2025 National Science Month

 Insight on the 2025 National Science Month Celebration Date: September 26, 2025

Each September, Filipinos celebrate National Science Club Month by exploring the theme set by DepEd and partner agencies. For 2025, the proclamation “Harnessing the Unknown: Powering the Future through Science and Innovation” was issued under Proclamation No. 264, mandating schools to spark curiosity and innovation among learners. This theme urges us to view the unexplored—whether novel materials, untested theories, or emerging technologies—as sources of solutions that can shape our tomorrow.


To bring this theme to life, DepEd’s Advisory 128, s. 2025 encourages schools nationwide to host activities such as quiz bees, sci-spelling contests, investigatory project showcases, and eco-innovation challenges. These events sharpen critical thinking and teamwork, showing students how to apply scientific methods to real-world problems—from reducing plastic waste to designing low-cost water filters. By participating in hands-on experiments and collaborative projects, learners experience firsthand how science drives progress in health, environment, and technology.

Beyond the classroom, the Department of Science and Technology’s Regional Science, Technology, and Innovation Week exemplifies how government and communities can partner to make science tangible. In Western Visayas, DOST Secretary Renato U. Solidum Jr. opened the regional celebration, highlighting initiatives like smart agriculture, aquaculture innovations, and disaster-resilient technologies. These exhibits and forums demonstrate that science isn’t confined to labs—it’s deployed in fields, factories, and marketplaces to uplift lives and strengthen local economies.

Looking ahead, the bond between science and society will be anchored by the Philippines’ rising global standing in innovation. This year, the country climbed to 50th place in the 2025 Global Innovation Index, thanks in large part to DOST-backed R&D, talent-development programs, and investments in areas such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and circular economy solutions. Such gains signal that our nation is ready to harness emerging discoveries for sustainable growth and inclusive development.

As students and future leaders, our role is to embrace the unknown—ask bold questions, collaborate across disciplines, and support equitable access to scientific knowledge. By doing so, we honor this year’s theme and help power a future where innovation lifts every Filipino community.

Come Get to Know Me

 Hello there viewer! My name is Eujann A. Paytoc and I am just a student trying to learn stuff at school. I listen to the lessons and take notes of important trivia of my lessons. I am kind of an oddball that differs from others, but I still like being friendly to other people my age. And I hope others do the same to not only me, but also be kind to others as well. I am always curious about stuff that I don't know about. The unknown is scary but also fascinating. Like there are many things out there in the world that can help us understand obscure topics like animals we haven't discovered in the wild or what's in the bottom of the sea. I really like mysteries of certain topics. And I would love to see those questions to get resolved one day. I never have any specific tastes on music, food, art, or whatever media. I just like the things that look or sounds good. There are no specifications, just that. It might be kinda bor...
