National

THE Zifasing Primary School in Wampar, Huon Gulf, will enrol its first batch of grade nine students this year after acquiring junior high status.
District administrator Moses Wanga and education manager Sam Geseng received the school code number and teaching positions as pre-Christmas gift from assistant education secretary Andrew Agobe early last month.
Wanga said it took three years to establish junior high school requirements when Huon Gulf MP Ross Seymour initiated the idea to build a school of academy to cater Wampar children minimise travelling risks down south coast to attend Salamaua and Morobe high schools over the years.
“We assured the provincial education selection board to consider grade nine selection for Zifasing” he said.
Wanga said the Hausman Building Solutions Ltd will complete four-in-one duplex and three standalone teachers’ houses this month.
