Governor Diclas said the learning tools aim to help promote students’ creativity while he recognizes their skills and interest in robotics.
SDS Buya-ao, meanwhile, thanked Governor Diclas and the entire officialdom of the provincial government for the procurement of the robotics learning tools as they aspire to provide opportunities for more students to realize their creativity and innovate robots which are beneficial to the community.
