Education is important as it is the key factor to producing quality citizens. It helps students actualize their potentials and develop the necessary skills to succeed.
In the province of Pampanga, the five siblings of the Sombillo clan have been recognized because of their academic excellence and achievements. Every year, the siblings get the highest academic award in their school.
This is why it is no surprise that they have already collected over 400 medals. One of the siblings said that the keys to their success are their diligence and dedication in studying.
Three of the siblings are already in college and are studying in Manila. According to the mother of the siblings, Nancy Sombillo, they are always supportive of their children's school activities.
"Napakahalaga ng may maraming time sa mga anak. Sinisigurado kasi namin na kapag may mga mahahalagang pangyayari o event sa school, talagang ang suporta nandoon sa mga anak," Nancy explained during the interview conducted by GMA's Unang Hirit.
Maria Therese Franceska Sombillo recently graduated as the class valedictorian. For her, without faith in God, you will not be able to achieve what you want to achieve.
"Kung wala pong faith kay God, hindi mo ma-a-achieve 'yung mga gusto mong ma-achieve. Tapos po, sipag at tiyaga," she said.
