Paradise Academy

Our Grade 12 students attended the 11th sitting of National Parliament of Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬🏛️, where they observed parliamentary proceedings and gained firsthand insight into how national issues are discussed and debated.
We were honoured to be welcomed by Assistant Speaker Hon. Robert Naguri, MP, and sincerely thank him for his warm reception.

Students also participated in an informative tour led by Mr. Nathan Pomaleu from the Education and Civics Division. We sincerely thank Mr. Pomaleu for sharing his knowledge, answering students’ questions, and deepening their understanding of civic responsibility and national governance.
An enriching experience in real-world civic education ⚖️📚

Selected students from Grades 7, 8, and 9 participated in the YouDebate 🌍🗣, an international debating competition organised by AUF and Speaking Schools Australasia (SSA). Held online through Zoom, students debated topics ranging from Law & Order and technology to media and international relations, developing confidence, critical thinking, and public speaking skills.

The experience strengthened their ability to present ideas clearly, work as a team, and engage in respectful discussion.

Our Grade 12 students recently visited the Rouna 2 Hydro Power Station!⚡
Students toured the facility and learned how hydroelectric power is generated, gaining first-hand insight into PNG’s energy systems during a guided session with the PNG Power team.
A valuable and memorable learning experience outside the classroom.
