BUNER: Government Primary School (GPS) Gumbat has broken the tradition that extracurricular activities are held only at Private Schools by organizing an event titled “Prize Distribution Ceremony” to award talented students on Sunday.

Addressing the gathering, Chief Guest Zahid Khan has urged villagers, specifically local farmers to boost focus on children’s education as anyone can go for higher studies, citing his son Usman Ali’s successful journey begun from the said School towards MBBS saying currently he is doing House Job at Abbottabad Hospital.
The speakers also demanded provincial government, especially MPA Sayed Fakhar Jehan, to approve construction of additional Class Rooms as over 400 Students are accommodated in only 7 class rooms while having no Staff Room.
Water, Electric, Sports facilities were among others sought by School’s Administration to bring further improvement in the future. Contents of the event included National and Religious Anthems, English and Urdu speeches, Music and Stage Dramas.
