Lae Family Day 2023

24 November 2023

A day filled with good food, good company and lots of fun. We took some time to celebrate our Lae staff and their families last Saturday, at the Scrum Oval. We all had a wonderful time, participating in a plethora of games and activities throughout the day, with the famous, and highly regarded tug-of-war being the highlight of the day. Sizzling hot BBQ was served with food for all, fairy floss sticks and lots of ice-cream to go around.

Steamships Family Days are a time for management to say thank you to our team members for their tireless efforts throughout the year. It is a chance for our families to get involved, to be part of the Steamships family, meet our colleagues, as well as an opportunity for all divisions to come together as one to celebrate another fantastic year. The Executive Management team from Port Moresby also flew in to partake in the festivities, taking time to meet and mingle with the wider team.

A special thank you to Innovative Agro Industry (IAI) Ltd. (Illimo Diary) for joining us on the day, with it’s much loved mascot handing out samples of Illimo Milk and Joi Juice to our team members.

07 November 2023

A great start to Thursday morning with one of Steamships’ Community Grants Programme recipients, the incredible group of women from the Sea Women of Melanesia-PNG, supported by the Coral Sea Foundation.

The ladies were training 4 new graduates on correctly monitoring and recording the topography of reefs needing rehabilitation.

SWoM continues to raise awareness of the ecological and social value of the Coral Sea and Eastern Coral Triangle implementing sustainable management techniques.

The program empowers indigenous women with the education, skills and resources they need to take an active role in raising community awareness and creating and monitoring marine protected areas on their own coral reefs.
