The Voice Behind the Victory

Ayeesha G. Gingco, a student-journalist from Malalag Central Elementary School was hailed as the 'Second Best Anchor' (Radio Scriptwriting and Broadcasting, Filipino) during the 2026 Division Schools Press Conference.

How did she win? This is her story.

Three long years.

She stayed. She waited. And she never gave up.

Gingco started her journey as an anchor for MCES Radio Scriptwriting and Broadcasting when she was only in Grade 4. Now in Grade 6, her final year of elementary school, she continues to carry with her the passion and dedication she has developed throughout her journey.

Three years of waiting, trying, learning, and holding on to a dream that never seemed easy to reach. Yet through every challenge, she never give up. Instead, she kept showing up with the same passion, the same determination, and the same love for campus journalism.

There were moments when the path became uncertain. When their team faced the possibility of being broken apart, she could have simply stepped back. But instead, she asked if she could join an individual event just so she could continue representing our school, and the journalism program she had remained loyal to for so long.

That simple request said so much about her.
She wasn't just chasing a title. She was holding on to something she truly loved– Campus Journalism.

And after three years of perseverance, she finally earned her spot in the Regional Schools Press Conference– a moment that makes this achievement so much more meaningful.

Today, we celebrate not only the title of Best Radio Broadcaster, but the story behind it.

A story of a girl who stayed when it would have been easier to leave.
A girl who waited when nothing was certain.
A girl who continued when the journey became tiring.
A girl who believed that perhaps, one day, all the waiting would be worth it.

And today, it is.

Ayeesha, we are immensely proud of you. You stayed. You waited. You persevered. And God saw every single hard work, every practice, every disappointment, every moment you chose to keep going.

Your journey reminds us that sometimes, the greatest victories are not the ones that come quickly, but the ones we earn after refusing to give up.

Congratulations, Ayeesha G. Gingco!

May this be only the beginning of the beautiful story you are meant to tell.Keep your voice strong, your heart humble, and your passion burning.

You waited three years for this moment.

And now, the Davao Region finally gets to hear your voice. ❤️🎙️
