57th Founding Anniversary

Coronation Night & Variety Show 2024

Excellence coupled with social responsibility propels an institution to
even greater heights. Our best efforts lies in our capacity to let others become
the best of themselves as well. Education is a compelling force that enables
our collective talents and abilities to achieve communal goals and aspirations.
Gingoog City Colleges has become a beacon of hope and a source of
generous and well-meaning individuals through its 57 years of existence. In
keeping the tradition of genuine love and service to the community, tonight we
celebrate that same spirit of excellence and hard work ignited by our founders
and the enduring commitment of our administration, faculty, staff, and
students. More importantly, we offer this night as thanksgiving for the
immeasurable blessings, our patron, Sr. Sto Niño has given upon us, by
showcasing our God-given gifts guided by our theme, Sinulog 2024:
Inspiring & Influencing GCCians the values of Generosity & Compassion
by Sharing God’s Blessings.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our Sinulog Coronation Night and

Variety Show 2024!

My due respect to our School President, Mrs. Tita G. Garrido, to our

school officials and guests in attendance and to all of you who are here with
us this evening. As GCC gives back honor and praise to the graces that the
Almighty has showered her, we humbly present this night to all of you! We
request everyone to please rise for the invocation, followed by the Philippine
National Anthem and GCC Song.

***
You can now be seated. A school community and family like GCC, will never
be as such throughout its existence if not selflessly cared for by an untiring
leader. Let us put our hands together to the Mother of GCC, our school
president, Mrs. Tita G. Garrido!

Thank you so much Mam Tita, our school would not have reached this far and
will so in the future ahead without your steadfast leadership!
