Arieta, Rivilla take home Kallistione crown-------- Maria Eloisa Garcia

Adrian Arieta and Paula Rivilla won Mr. and Ms. Kallistione last September 8, 2014.
                 Alexander the Great claimed the Best Costume and Best in Costume for the male category. “Adrian was definitely fit for the role. His costume was also well-made,” Lallene Cinco, his classmate commented.
                 Rivilla, on the other hand, entered the spotlight with poise and fearlessness. “A fierce persona, an eventual queen,” Rene Sebes, a Grade 9 student, said referring to Rivilla.
Queen Boadicea’s production number sent the audience tailed to every piece of action, justifying her role as a warrior queen. The latter received the Best in Production Number and the Best Performer for the female category.
Posing as two of the most popular history figures, Arieta as Alexander the Great, and Rivilla as Queen Boadicea, carried out their respective roles for the said competition.
Both were from the juniors, who made a splash as they were proclaimed victors of the night.
“They retained their composures and their strong, dominating auras throughout the whole program.”, Sir Rommel Alvarez, faculty, commented.
  “Wonderful performance, greatly modified by her tiger-like screams,” Christian Alferez, a sophomore, said.
Juniors also won second runner-up for male and female, with Chauntel Gimenez as Queen Elizabeth and Lance Catadman as Charlemagne.
The seniors proved that they never leave without putting up a fight. Noreen Sumalinog as Nzinga Mbande and Ryan Musa as Julius Caesar were proclaimed the third runner-ups of the competition.
The Kallistione: The Gods Who Shaped History was the first competition in ACT which featured the most important figures of the earliest civilizations of the world, portrayed by selected high school representatives.
Not only that, the competition was educational. “The activity was really great. It was something to enjoy and something to learn as well. We as audience learned names and lives of prominent personas in history.” Ms. Monette Binagatan, School nurse, commented.
Binagatan also said that whatever the contestants did on stage for sure would never be forgotten.
