This 12-day commemoration embraced the spirit of unity and festivity that ignited the warmth of the holiday season across the 17 regions of the Department of Education. The theme, "Makulay ang Pasko ng Pamilyang Pilipino," encapsulates the essence of a vibrant and inclusive Christmas celebration within Filipino families.

Moreover, this nationwide festivity aimed to foster community spirit and creativity, emphasizing the importance of family, unity, Filipino traditions, and joy that define the Christmas spirit by engaging in simple yet meaningful activities, especially during flag-raising ceremonies and other events, thus creating a vibrant and memorable Christmas experience for students, educators, and the larger Filipino community.

Day 6 at the regional office adopted the theme, “Lumiliwanag ang Mundo sa Kwento ng Pasko.” During the flag-raising ceremony facilitated by the Curriculum and Learning Management Division (CLMD) led by Chief Bernabe L. Linog, Marlyne Villareal hosted a mini-quiz related to the Christmas season. Winners were Dr. Maria Ruth Edradan, Dr. Alendro P. Macadatar, Dr. Marigold Silao, Maripaz F. Magno, and Megnon P. Beldad.
