B’ville schools to get kits

 ONE hundred and twenty elementary schools in the Autonomous Region of Bougainville will be the first to receive the latest interactive elementary kits. 

Treid Pacific Ltd general manager Wilson David told National Capital District elementary school teachers who visited Treid Pacific last Friday to inspect the kits and observe the packing that was done for Bougainville. 

“The materials are useful. They would improve children’s mathematical, analytical and comprehensive abilities and make learning in the classrooms more fun-filled,” David said. 

“Treid Pacific team had visited Bougainville earlier to show the materials and saw that Bougainville was keen to improve its education standard. 

“Bougainville Education Division chief executive officer Bruno Babato had requested that all elementary schools in Bougainville be supplied a kit each. 

“The kits are packed and will be dispatched to Bougainville this week. The kits would then be delivered to the schools for use next year.”

Treid Pacific education manager Oscar Iguarek said the kits were produced to complement the Outcome-Based Education curriculum. 

“It’s an opportunity for elementary schools in NCD to plan for these Kits to be issued at your schools next year,” Iguarek told the teachers. 

NCD Division of Education Services Superintendent Operations Stephen Lapan said proper resource books were hard to find. 

“As we focus on elementary we must have such resources to complement new ideas and at the end of the day we achieve our goals.”
