Biogas Project sa OLPS

A commendable project sa OLPS. they are setting-up a biogas digester to save on cooking gas expenses and in the future generate additional power for OLPS needs --electricity and heat.


does that mean the toilets will have hot water???



Site for the Biogas Digester project duly approved by the PTA last General Assembly (August 1, 2009).

Visit OLPS HS for more info and updates. magayon kay lalong nagiging active na an HS niyan. damo an projects! thanks sa mga padi sa OLPS for their efforts! kaya mga sano, if you are feeling charitable these days, OLPS could really use your help. kindly contact the Fr. Rector.


Mga Sano! Father Rector is asking for suggestions na name para sa OLPS Minor Varsity Team. post your suggestions sa comment and i'll paste it here. Go on to live in the OLPS lore as the sano who bestowed the OLPS varsity name!!!! dali-dali na kamo! Also basi may Sano o batch na gusto mag-sponsor san varsity team --uniform, food, transpo, etc please contact Fr. Rector.

The Seminary Varsity will be joining the Sorsogon Juniors Basketball League on August 20 - September 08, 2009. Our varsity basketball team is under the able hands of our own Sano, Coach Aldin V. Ayo (batch 94). We would like to solicit the support of all Sano out there.

If you are around Sorsogon please be present during the scheduled games. We would like also to ask for suggestions on the OLPS "moniker" and not only that.... if any generous Sano would like to sponsor the team uniform, it would be highly appreciated.

For many years the Seminary has dominated the field of Basketball in Sorsogon but we had been out of the limelight for some time now. Our return to the field does not promise to bring back the golden days of Seminary Basketball but at least have our presence felt again. And with a dear hope that someday we shall rise and shine again.

The Very Reverend Father Roger Joseph B. Erestain, JCL (OLPS Batch1990-1994) is the new Rector of OLPS Minor.

He was appointed as OIC Rector of the seminary last Holy Thursday, April 9, 2009. He will assume office at the start of the school year 2009-2010.

Joining him in managing the seminary will be Rev. Mr. Edmon Benzon. Rev. Edmon was ordained to the order of deacons just recently (March 26, 2009). The seminary is still waiting for the return of the persons who went on study leave abroad.

Thank you very much Batch '83.

Mga sano, maybe you can pitch in in the repair of this torn down fence:

Mga Sano, i was tasked to post this picture of OLPS Minor Seminary gate. Maybe we can collect some money from the Alumni who wants to help our Alma Mater.

If you will remember this is the "pader" along Bibincahan Sorsogon we usually scale doing our "great escape".

Shown in the picture is the home of the clergy on the right side and the study hall on the left.

Please desposit any donation to OLPS PNB Account Numbers : 478-811387-6 (PhP), 478-700725-8 (US$)...by the way hope to see you this Alumni Homecoming!

The Graduates - 2008















here are the chaps who wrestled through four years of OLPS and are set to graduate this march(?)

Mga sano, what advise can you give these 11 as they face the thrills and disappointments of "buhay sa luwas"?

1. to start off, me i'd encourage them to take a year off and just bum around and travel. see what its like being out in the world. well, thats what i would have done if given the chance to do it all over again hehehe.

OLPS happenings

lots of new stuff over at the OLPSminor blog. go visit na!


BAMS 2008





























some kind of spiritual miracle seems to be taking place here. and tio nards is the ninong daw! hehe

















remember the always nice and helpful sr. myrna and ms. halcon? (i dont now the gal in the middle though)

mayad pa an olps kay damo an outing hehe.

tree planting sa minor


one of the activities during the homecoming was tree planting. this is a good idea since OLPS is almost arot na with most of the tress felled down by past typhoons.

so if you should find yourself in sorsogon one of these days, take a little time out to plant a tree in OLPS. it would be cool to go back again in a few years or so and see your tree all grown up di ba?

here is sano ronny planting a tree
