The most awaited event of the students in Centro Escolar Integrated School — The Sportsfest — has now started.
The event started with a parade accompanied by a loud and lively band, students settled in the Centrodome, and the opening ceremony began. It was followed by the presentation of the representative of Mr. and Ms. Sportsfest per year level and an intermission number by the high-school department teachers.
The oath of sportsmanship and the lighting of the torch marked that the Sportsfest 2025–2026 had officially started — students showed their eagerness, thrill, and competitiveness. Moreover, the announcement of the winners for the '25–'26 Mr. and Ms. Sportsfest took place, which was secured by the Red Mockingjay.
Centrodome was once again filled with screams and excitement when the dance battle began. The dancers won not only the judges' hearts but also the audience’s. The students not only showed their talents, but also the judges. They proved why they are the chosen judges of the event. The winners for the dance battle are:
