Highlands Christian Grammar – Zooming ahead

Students and staff at Highlands Christian Grammar (HCG) are jumping for joy. Not only do we have satellite Internet at school but we also have an interactive data projector. The teachers’ joy may be short lived as they struggle with the frustrations of using new technologies where the students are likely to learn faster than them! Not to mention the power blackouts.


In 2011, only 2% of people in PNG had Internet. At HCG we are on a steep learning curve. We have to prepare our students for the global citizens and to use Information Communication Technologies (ICT) to learn, study and live.
There are plans for children in the upper grades to have their own digital device next year. The teachers will need to re-think the way they teach. What an exciting journey and boy, we have a lot of learning to do.
