Baluan National High School holds JS Prom in Fort Sarangani
25 February 2012. Crossing two regions, two cities and three municipalities, the 3rd and 4th year high school students of Baluan National High School of Palimbang, Sultan Kudarat travelled more than 24 hours to reach 73IB just to celebrate their Junior-Senior Promenade. Headed by their principal, Mrs. Alladin Grande, a total of 80 students and teachers enjoyed the serene beauty of Fort Sarangani as the venue of their activity.




 
The students experience the usual tank-riding, lunch-dining in Serenity Lounge and Serendipity CafĂ©, picture-taking and tour around the Peace Camp. It was an unforgettable experience for the students to visit urban area and even go to the beach. Mrs. Grande quoted “Baluan went to town,” she was overwhelmed with the kindness that the soldiers showed with them. “The accommodation and full support of the officers and men of 73IB are great that made our activity come into reality. The whole delegation could never forget the hospitality and I am sure that we will go back again,” Mrs. Grande said.




Themed with Hawaiian accent, the JS Prom of BNHS was graced by Councilor Sarah Fatima Maulana and Sanguniang Bayan Member Mariam Kanda of Palimbang. Maj Romasanta was their Guest of Honor and Speaker of said event.
