As part of the celebrations marking Seychelles’ 50th Anniversary of Independence, the Seychelles Police Academy proudly joined the nationwide clean-up campaign, demonstrating our commitment to community service and national pride.

Our recruits worked alongside district authorities and community members to clean and beautify areas surrounding the Primary School Court and the Community Centre. The initiative was further strengthened by the participation of the Office Manager and the Member of the National Assembly for Pointe Larue, who were both present and actively lent a helping hand throughout the clean-up exercise.

Their involvement highlighted the importance of unity, teamwork, and shared responsibility in preserving the beauty of our communities and our nation.

Through this collaborative effort, our recruits demonstrated that leadership is not only about serving, but also about inspiring positive change. As our recruits proudly said:

“Yes, we can keep Seychelles beautiful!”

Together, we continue to honour our past, serve our present, and build a cleaner, greener Seychelles for future generations.

Message from the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Godfra Hermitte, on the Occasion of International Children’s Day.

On the occasion of International Children’s Day, I extend my warmest wishes to all children across our nation. This special day reminds us of the importance of nurturing, protecting, and empowering every child, as they are the foundation of our future. I wish to make a special mention of the children of our police officers. Your parents play a vital and demanding role across our country. For the children role for our country, in ensuring, peace and security for all. At the same time, they carry the equally important responsibility of being parents and guardians, committed to your wellbeing, guidance, and development. Their dedication, both in service and at home, is truly commendable.

As Commissioner of Police, I reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that the rights of all children are respected and upheld at all times. The Police Force remains fully dedicated to playing a clear and active role in safeguarding the welfare and development of children, creating an environment where they can grow, learn, and thrive in safety and dignity. I also take this opportunity to call upon all officers, especially our family support squad unit and Child Protection Unit within the Police Force to continue playing their part in promoting protection and preventing all forms of abuse against children. It is a shared responsibility that requires vigilance, compassion, and unity.
Let us continue to work together to build a safer, more caring society where every child feels valued, protected, and inspired to reach their full potential.

Happy International Children’s Day to all.

On Thursday, the Seychelles Police Academy had the distinct pleasure of welcoming Secondary 5 students from Praslin Secondary School for an enriching educational visit to our campus.

This visit provided students with valuable insight into the daily life, structured training environment, and diverse career pathways available within the Police Academy. They were also introduced to the Seychelles Police Academy Certificate in Policing Course, gaining a deeper understanding of the subjects, discipline, and essential skills required to pursue a career in law enforcement.

A particularly meaningful highlight of the visit was the interaction with current cadets and officers who are proud alumni of Praslin Secondary School. Their personal journeys served as a powerful source of inspiration, demonstrating that with determination, discipline, and commitment, achieving one’s goals is well within reach.

The Seychelles Police Academy remains steadfast in its commitment to nurturing and empowering the youth of Seychelles. Through initiatives such as these, we aim to guide young individuals in making informed educational and career choices, contributing to a brighter and more secure future for our nation.
