Gadingmangu boarding school

Gadingmangu boarding school for female student

Gadingmangu boarding school established in 1951 and inauguration in1952, gadingmangu boarding school has a long history, some I have written on the title of the post a brief history of GadingMangu. It's a boarding school located in Gadingmangu Village in Jombang. Gadingmangu boarding school divided into 2 place and with different name because of the location of different places, The first building called Gama1 and second one called Gama2
1. gama 2 is short for Gadingmangu2 located close to the Luhur nurhasan mosque and this boarding school (Gama 2) is only accepting or only able to accommodate male students, Gama2 can accommodate about 800 Students. Gama2 divided into 2 buildings commonly known by building A and building B

2. Gama1. this boarding school was named to the gama1 because was established first before Gama2. Gama1 formerly known as "Gadingmangu boarding schools"  because no Gama2 at the moment, then after the second boarding school built  to make it easier called with Gama1, and the second building is called the Gama2. Gama1 located on the north of the Luhur mosque, approximately 300m from Gama2, Gama 1 was alongside Antiq mosque  that is the first mosque built in the Gadingmangu village. Gama 1 is also divided into two parts: the first building for female students people used to call "Gama1 puteri", and the second one for the male students and better known as "gama1 putera". Gama1 puteri  used to only be occupied and entered by the female students, male of the students entered is prohibited. Gama 1 puteri can accommodate about 300 Students every year. and for gama 1putra can accommodate more than 300 Students every year  not as much as the number of male students in the Gama2 the capacity of this boarding school is 2 fold more because 2 building only contain male student, If counted all the students gadingmangu from both places and gama2 gama1 totaled 1400.

actually number of male and female students who come to study at the Gadingmangu boarding school more numerous of the number mentioned above. In every new school year in Gadingmangu, the number of students who come to the village of gadingmangu always expand and grow, at least there are 70% Students rejected for study in gadingmangu every year. This is not because Gadingmangu selecting strictly to the students or female students who wish to enter the boarding school in Gadingmangu, but the cause is insufficient, so that the students who arrived later did not have a place to stay while studying or the quota is met. Because there is no place to accommodate students then they had to to go back home. some of students in gadingmangu are choose not to be at the pesantren place although at the same purpose, in other words they rented room in a house owned by local people and they are willing to pay the appropriate fee as specified by the owner of the house, this cost usually in combination with the cost of meals every day. live outside the boarding school or called rented room, this happens because the space provided at the pesantren place is full so that it becomes an alternative and they can still take part as is generally the students in boarding school.

Gadingmangu is the most boarding school enjoy by the alumni who have been stay in Gadingmangu few years, compared with to other pesantren this is proved by the alumni who had left the Gadingmangu
, When they moved to another pesantren in order to continue and deepen they knowledge, after they moved in the pesantren they feel its difference with boarding school in Gadingmangu. Some of them say "I miss the atmosphere of Gadingmangu" and some of them when home sickness they say "I do not feel at home in this pesantren I feel like going to Gadingmangu". Though Gadingmangu not their home, but when they home sickness, they remember about Gadingmangu. It is a fact, which are said by some of my friends who had been living in boarding school of Gadingmangu.

Gadingmangu has been around since the 1952 And has graduated thousands and even hundreds of thousands of students.The students have spread throughout homeland of Indonesia and even foreign countries. Gadingmangu boarding school has a commitment to educate their students in order to become a professional in every way and have good character or moral so that the students always accepted by society, in fact they are the preferred by people from other countries because of their mind and character and has always respectful of others and so many alumni who excel in a particular field. Graduates of Gadingmangu many who work and become an important person in another State because, the boarding school of gadingmangu also provided supplies foreign language to the students, especially english special even English, they provide the media and special community with hope "any students who take this course can master english". This is what makes the alumni of Ponpes Gadingmangu always ready to Go international. And has been proven many alumni who are abroad even they become a resident of that Country. Gadingmangu boarding school Alumni has spread in 32 Countries, include: Australia, America and some other country.
