Heldsbach

The event in Morobe Province will be more interactive and fun.

ELCPNG National Youth Director, Tony Kundang, remarked that the traditional manner of facilitating the youth conference will undergo subtle changes.

Kundang noted that during each conference, youth delegates, often numbering over 800, usually discuss agenda, receive progress reports on work, and discuss outcomes, as well as engage in other conversations on issues and challenges affecting youth programmes, activities and related schedules.

Hundreds of locals turned up to participate in the historical event that paves the way for the Morobe Provincial Government’s 3-6-6 policy.

The Heldsbach campus at Finschhafen was filled with the sound of beating kundu drums and women’s singing. The landmark opening of the Heldsbach teacher training centre is not only a first for Morobe but for the nation as well.

Officiating at the event was Governor Ginson Saonu and Education Secretary, Dr Uke Kombra.

Dr Kombra highlighted that Heldsbach Teachers College was established in 1914; 107 years ago.
