BOGOR - The Bogor Regency Education Office in West Java Province prohibits students from bringing late-lato to school to ensure teaching and learning activities are not disrupted. "Students are very prohibited from bringing lato-lato to school because the school is a place to study, not a place to play. So I emphasize that they cannot bring the lato-lato game to school," said Head of the Bogor Regency Education Office Juanda Dimansyah in Cibinong, Bogor, Antara, Monday, January 9. He asked for the support of teachers in elementary schools (SD) to junior high schools (SMP) to inform students about the prohibition of bringing lato-lato to schools. "I ask the first day of entering this school every school to supervise and prohibit its students, not to bring these lato-lato toys to the school environment, let alone in the classroom," said Juanda. A teacher at Al Yasmin Bogor Middle School, Mawar, said that the ban on bringing toys to school had been in effect since the first day of school after the year-end holiday and students at his school had understood the provisions. "We have informed students and parents, (that) no toys were allowed to go to school. Earlier, after checking, no one brought them," said Mawar.
