Two new classrooms for elementary students

 Elementary students of Carr Memorial Primary School in Port Moresby will now enjoy the comfort of two new classrooms opened yesterday. 

The students have been attending lessons under trees for a long time.

The funding for the classrooms was made available by Moresby North-West MP and Health Minister Michael Malabag. 

They cost K360,000.

Malabag said his grandson Joshua Malabag was attending elementary at the school and seeing him taking lessons under a tree motivated him to help. 

“When you see children, their genuine smiles and clapping, you would want to provide a better education for them,” he said.

Malabag announced a commitment of K200,000 to the school, which would be given by the acting Education Minister James Marape.
