“I am impressed with the young people; they are not only consumers, but they are able to produce creative messages. As producers and providers, it is a positive start and I hope these productions are made available to the secular media,” said Archbishop Rochus Tatamai to the students. He encouraged those present to keep it clean and go green as it is a new normal for each of us to care for our common home.

“As I was watching, I told myself the environment and the future of PNG is in good hands,” said Archbishop Francesco Panfilo.


As she encouraged the students, Dr Catherine Nongkas stated: “I encourage you to take what you have shown here, to your school and make it happen.”


Also, speaking to the students was Mrs Bernadette Ove who asked that the films be made available to all the schools as in a way, it will be educational students. Br John Pill expressed his deep appreciation for the talent and the quality of productions.


Apart from the screening, representatives from each school shared their reflections and experiences on what they had learnt in the seminar. “Prevention is better than cure and right now, we have preventive measures in place. For us to live the new normal, we need to follow the six key messages,” said Gabriel Kila, representative of Don Bosco Technological Institute as he spoke on COVID-19.


Following the filming and speeches, prizes were given to schools for the best films including scores on students’ behaviour and punctuality throughout the seminar.
