First in Campus Journalism: Bunot ES

Bunot Elementary School just elevated itself into complete elementary status in 2012 through the potential and initiative of the school head, Jurmainna H. Hunding, Head Teacher III. After short year of elevation, it is now coming up with the creation of its campus journalism writers. Bunot Elementary School is lucky enough in having Alnashvier I. Abduljalil, Grade 3 Adviser. It is with this new teacher of Grade 3 that started journalism in his class entitle 'LANGKING'. Nash already started some volumes of the school publication months ago. He presented it to the Public Schools District Supervisor, Samoore S. Ladjahali for comment. The PSDS was so  amazed in seeing the Grade 3 learners' achievement that would serve as their legacy in Bunot Elementary School.
