Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges, Inc.

Guided by the theme, “Together We Belong: Celebrating Abilities, Building Possibilities,” the celebration aimed to recognize the diverse gifts and talents of learners with special educational needs by fostering a welcoming and inclusive community that looks beyond limitations and embraces every individual's abilities.

The day kicked off at 7:30 a.m. with the singing of the Philippine National Anthem, followed by an invocation accompanied by the audiovisual committee.

Edna L. Vilches, Principal IV, delivered the welcome remarks, while Maria Rowena R. Cabreros, Principal IV, led the presentation of participants and guests.

This was followed by a statement of purpose delivered by Lilane M. Josol, Ph.D., the Division SNED Focal Person.

Expressing their support for the initiative, several officials and representatives delivered messages of support, including Maria Rita S. Velos, Division Chief and Disability Affairs Officer IV; Dr. Marichu P. Diendo, Dean of the Psychology Department; and Dr. Kristoffer Franz R. Millado, College President of RMMC, who was represented by Dr. Analisa T. Amada, Dean of CTE.

Messages of support were also delivered by Mervie Y. Seblos, CESE, Assistant Schools Division Superintendent; Isagani S. Dela Cruz, CESO V, Schools Division Superintendent; and Hon. Lorelie G. Pacquiao, City Mayor.

The program featured an opening salvo performed by the participants, setting an energetic and celebratory atmosphere.

The modeling and solo singing contests brought warmth and excitement to the center stage as learners with special educational needs from different schools showcased their confidence, creativity, and talents.

The event also featured a talent contest and a wellness break facilitated by the talent committee and the medical and safety committee, respectively.

As the afternoon activities continued, Rhona Marielle H. Abayon, MAEd, LPT, CTE Community Extension Coordinator; Cresa Johanna Marie F. Garcia, RPm, Psychology Program Director; and student volunteers, interns, and representatives from CTE and CAS facilitated engaging activities that brought fun and joy to the participants.

Following the activities, the volunteers assisted in distributing loot bags containing food and drinks to the learners, extending their support and fostering meaningful connections with them. Through their active involvement, the volunteers helped create a lively and welcoming atmosphere, encouraging meaningful interaction and participation throughout the celebration.

More than a celebration of talents and abilities, the Division SNED Fun Day 2026 highlighted the importance of inclusivity, collaboration, and equal opportunities for learners with special educational needs.

Through initiatives such as this, RMMC, CTE, and CAS reaffirmed the value of community engagement in creating an environment where every learner is given the opportunity to participate, express themselves, and thrive.

In its consistent commitment to service and dedicated partnership with the Sarangani Parole and Probation Office (SPPO), the Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges, Inc., College of Teacher Education (RMMC-CTE), conducted a Community Immersion on Mental Health, Psychological Well-being and Spiritual Wellness, and Psychoeducation on Understanding Emotions, Healthy Coping Strategies, and Self-Care at the Hall of Justice, Capitol Compound, Alabel, Sarangani Province, on October 20.

Carrying the theme “Pressed but Not Crushed: Your Past Squeezed You, But God Shapes You,” the program aimed to fulfill its purpose by bringing together parolees and probationers for a meaningful discussion and an inspiring message about prioritizing mental health, with a focus on stress management, hope, and strengthening one’s faith in God.

The program was spearheaded by Rhona Marielle H. Abayon, MAEd, LPT, the CTE Community Extension Coordinator, and Cresa Johanna Marie F. Garcia, RPm, the Psychology Program Director under the College of Arts and Sciences. They were joined by representatives from the Sarangani Parole and Probation Office, Bachelor of Arts in Psychology students, and College of Teacher Education representatives.

As the resource speaker, Rhona Marielle H. Abayon, MAEd, LPT, highlighted the vital role of psychological well-being and the importance of managing stress instead of allowing it to overpower one’s daily activities.

“God made each of us with three parts: our mind (mental health), heart (psychological well-being), and our spirit (spiritual wellness). These three parts are connected; when one part is hurting, the other hurts, too. And stress can touch all three,” she added.

The program also featured interactive Squishy Ball activities that served as a fun and engaging way to encourage socialization among community members. The squishy ball was used to represent stress and was connected to the participants’ relationship with God and real-life experiences. It also served as a tool for exploring coping mechanisms for stress through individual, pair, and group activities.

Through these activities, the community members who participated in the program were encouraged to become more mindful of their mental health and gain a deeper understanding of their emotions, healthy coping strategies, and self-care.

The College of Teacher Education (CTE) of Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges, Inc. (RMMC) triumphed in the Daluyong Festival during the first day of PALARO 2026, held in Antonio C. Acharon Sports Complex on October 13.

A story of a deafening, explosive boom along with the relentless flow of water and the shrieking roar of the winds.

A “daluyong” has befallen the land of the fighting owls, thrown in a pit of despair; a bluefin emerges as the epitome of hope and their key to winning.

The performance showcased unity, creativity, and passion and was then showered with loud cheers, applauses, and chants.

“All our hard work and exhaustion have finally paid off. All our efforts have finally been rewarded with the justice they deserve," shared by Jeffran “Francheska” P. Balabag, a first-year choreographer from BPED.

Cheska shows great pride and appreciation towards the participants along with the facilitators, and that this success will not be possible without the collaborative effort.

The president of the College of Teacher Education, Kenz C. Fabay, also shared his sentiments and gratitude to the members of Daluyong Festival for their unwavering dedication during every practice up until the said event. “We are very grateful and proud of our Daluyong Festival dancers because they give their best, and even a lot of sacrifices were made.”

Beyond the competition, each college tells a story of adversity and the capacity to rise and break through.

Palaro 2026 embodies the true spirit of sportsmanship, where unity, respect, and perseverance triumph beyond victory.
