Aruka Smart House: An Educational Hub and a Beacon of Hope for Papua’s Children

Mimika – Maria, a teacher at Tipuka Elementary School, has found significant support in the educational program initiated by the Public Relations Task Force of Ops Damai Cartenz 2025. The tutoring sessions at Aruka Smart House have provided additional knowledge and motivation for her students.

“As educators, we are often limited in providing diverse learning experiences. With programs like this, children can enjoy a different and more enjoyable learning environment,” said Maria.

Teachers have witnessed firsthand how the children become more enthusiastic when learning with police personnel. Interactive teaching methods, such as singing and playing while learning, help students grasp the material more quickly.

In addition to academic growth, these activities also contribute to building discipline and self-confidence among the students. Maria hopes that this program will continue and involve more parties in supporting the education of children in Papua.

“We truly appreciate this initiative and hope that Aruka Smart House will continue to be a place where children in Papua can grow and dream bigger,” she concluded.
