Iloilo City government on Monday recognized seven elementary pupils for winning various Math competitions abroad.


Mayor Jose Espinosa III led the awarding of certificates to seven Ilonggo Math wizards of SPED-ISEC after winning International Math competitions during City Hall’s flag raising ceremony January 22.

“These children are good examples of hardwork and perseverance at an early age. Competing with other countries’ best mathematicians is not that easy but they made it. I salute their parents and teachers for supporting them,” Espinosa said.

Ralph Uzzxyll Belleza represented Region 6 and was one of the 17 National Awardees in the 2017 Mga Bagong Rizal: Pag-asa ng Bayan Award by the Philippine Center for the Gifted at Eurotel Hotel, Makati City Nov. 24, 2017.

He also bagged a gold medal in the International Mathematics Wizard Challenge at Xiamen, China May 19-23, 2017.




Anne Beatriz Tunguia, Gabriel Syd Bayate, and Giodeone Rey Bayate each won silver medal, while Ma. Zoephia Valaquio got the Merit Award in the same competition.

Zyron John Valaqiuo was a silver medalist during the 14th International Mathematics and Science Olympiad (IMSO 2017) for Primary School at Singapore Nov. 20-24, 2017.

He was a gold medalist during 2017 International Math Open for Young Achievers (IMOYA) at United World College. Dover Campus, Dover Road Singapore Sept. 1-4, 2017.




Ryckxeian Isiah Alcubilla was a bronze medalist in the same competition.

Belleza stressed that experiences like these helped boost their confidence. It also made them strive harder to win more contests.
“Being a Mga Bagong Rizal Awardee really made me more dedicated. I won’t be able to make it possible without preparing myself spiritually, mentally, and physically. I always put God in everything that I do,” said Belleza.

“On behalf of SPED-ISEC family, we would like to thank City Government’s effort in giving honor to the students. They really worked for the achievements that they had. I hope they can inspire more students to study and focus on their studies for better future,” said Valerie Mae Belleza, SPED-ISEC Math teacher. (Thessalonia Ordales/Iloilo City PIO)
