This was revealed by the Pomio education coordinator Caspar Ruga recently. Ruga said there was required infrastructure being put in place to cater for the student intake next year and onwards. He explained that currently, Pomio had three secondary schools one at Palmalmal in the West Pomio-Mamusi LLG and Warangoi and Kambubu in the Sinivit LLG. Ruga said Kambubu Secondary was a mission school run by the Seventh-day Adventist church. He said the decision had been made by the ENB education board for two schools in the province to take on secondary status next year. “These two schools are Tol and Romoaina Technical High School in the Duke of York Islands LLG in Kokopo,” he said.
