2 special needs students from Kolej Vokasional Keningau have emerged as the champions of a storytelling competition that was part of an online art festival in Australia.
The duo submitted a video of a story titled “John and the witch” in the category of illustrated storytelling for the Under The Skies Of Australia festival competition, organised by the EAFF.
Nurosimah Jumat who has vision difficulties and Brenda Ashley who has learning difficulties were behind the winning entry, reported Sabah Post.
The story was created by selecting random picture cards and from then on, they created a storyline out of it. They spoke in Malay for the video but English subtitles were attached.

Congratulations and bravo, Nurosimah and Brenda!
