History of SMK Grafika Desa Putera

BY: Jusup Adji Nugroho, S.Pd.

     At that time the political conditions in the country had not shown stability, the war for independence was still raging. War of course brings social casualties to civilians who do not understand politics. The social impacts that are felt are hunger, poverty, crime, and social decline. As a result, this has an impact on the lives of the children, they become orphans. In order to survive they had to take to the streets. Behind the political ambitions of the Dutch people who wanted to control their colony, it turned out that there were missionaries who wanted to get away from the problem. They work in the social field as apostolate. One of the missionaries who worked is Mgr. Wilekens, Vicar Apostolic of Batavia.

Orphaned street children and war victims need protection. Thus on 30 June 1947 the Desa Poetra was established, as their home. As the manager, it was handed over to the Budi Mulia Congregation and the Vincentius Association, with Br. Corbinianus and Br. Matteus. As a means of supporting education for them, this year the Desa Poetra School was established. Not only for the children of Desa Poetra, the surrounding community can also enjoy these facilities. To meet the advanced level after graduating from People's School, Br. Juvenalis founded SGB with a total of 15 students in the first year. In 1960, there was a change in the school system in Indonesia, so the SGB was changed to SMP Desa Putera without losing subsidies from the government.

To increase the skills of the orphanage students, they began to be taught bookbinding business by Br. Basilides, and the business continued to grow with the addition of a few small printing machines ( handpress ). Initially only 12 people were trained to study the larger field of binding and printing. Efforts in that direction were intensified by bringing in experts from the Netherlands and also catak machines in 1967.

     In 1968, the government obtained permission to establish a Graphic School. Graphic Engineering School (junior high school level) was started without machines, because sending the machines took a long time. As the principal of ST Grafika, the first was held by Brother Janssen.

     To accommodate advanced education after graduating from ST Grafika, on January 1, 1970, STM Grafika Desa Putera was established. On April 11, 1972 the graphics school obtained a license and was inaugurated as the Putera Village Graphic Secondary Engineering School with Br. J.B. Janssens as Principal. The inauguration was held on Tuesday 11 April 1972 which was attended by the Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta, the Dutch Ambassador, Mrs. Johana A. H. Nasution, Deputy Bishop of Jakarta. Meanwhile, Mrs. Liestinah Mashuri, wife of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia. In addition, the event was also attended by the director of the Graphic Company in Jakarta. This school is open to the public, not only children in the orphanage. Finally, the Graphic School was established in Desa Putera

     The current development of the times continues to bring change and progress for the better. School infrastructure facilities continue to be built and equipped. Machines began to be imported from the Netherlands and Germany for student practice purposes gradually. The first stage on April 17, 1965 came the Degelpress Engine, however, the machines were not available until January 22, 1971.

     In accordance with government regulations in the field of education, in 1985 the name STM Grafika Desa Putera was changed to become the Junior High School for Graphic Engineering in Desa Putera. Additions to learning facilities and building construction continue to be carried out more magnificently, better, and in line with technological developments. The new building was inaugurated on 23 July 1993 by Mr. Willi Laluyan, Director of Press and Graphic Development of the Ministry of Information, which occupies the former Putera Village Elementary School which was moved to the north side of the large square.

      On that occasion the Graphic Training Center (GTC) was also inaugurated with its director, Ir. Saan Ashari. The institution was founded inspired by similar institutions in the Netherlands, with the aim of providing graphics education and training for the wider community.

     Following government policies in the field of vocational education in 1997, SMT Grafika Desa Putera changed its name to Vocational High School Grafika Desa Putera. The hard work towards a better direction continues to be carried out and developed by Br. Martin Dol. As long as he led the village of Putera printing as a school production unit with the demands of the times. This was done to maintain the quality that has been recognized by the community.

     Accreditations in September 2006, 2011 and 2016 resulted in maximum achievement and recognition from the government. Officially in December 2006 the predicate "Accredited A" was given by the DKI Jakarta School Accreditation Board. To keep up with the development of the digital world in the millennial era, in 2020 the opening of the Multimedia Study Program was initiated. The existence and quality that is continuously maintained requires patience, tenacity, and a long struggle, so that more and more achievements are made. Many of the industrialized world has come to look for workers, not only from within the country but also from abroad such as countries in ASEAN, the Middle East and Europe. It does not stop there, SMK Grafika Desa Putera is a learning resource for many graphic schools that will be established, even though they are still in the process of self-development. Student affairs also gain many achievements in the fields of sports, scientific work, and cultural arts.

     The alumni of SMK Grafika Desa Putera are spread all over the country, working in various sectors, and of course in the most dominant field of graphics.

     Sampai saat ini, SMK Grafika Desa Putera telah dipimpin oleh 8 Kepala Sekolah, yaitu: Br. J.B. Janssens (1970-1980), Br. S.A. Ginting (1980-1983), Drs. Frans Soedjiwo (1983-1984), Bapak Mashuri, B.Sc. (1984-1998), Bapak Matheus Nalih, A.Md.Graf., S.Pd. (1998-2001), Bapak Kardy Matheus, S.Sn., M.Pd. (2001-2004), Bapak Drs. Mateus Sumadiyono (2004-2019)  dan  Bapak Paulus Danar Mujiarto, S.Pd. ( 2019-sekarang).

Dengan jumlah guru 19 orang, 29 orang instruktur praktik, dan 5 orang karyawan. Hitungan tersebut masih di luar karyawan Percetakan Desa Putera sebagai Unit Produksi dan Laboratorium Praktik SMK Grafika Desa Putera. Hembusan angin segar seiring dengan perputaran mesin cetak tetap terasa di bumi Desa Putera. Sampai saat ini SMK Grafika Desa Putera tetap setia menghasilkan tenaga grafika potensial dan kompeten.

For approximately four years of teaching at SMK Grafika Desa Putera, many joys and sorrows have been experienced, if you think about it, there are more joys. I like it because I can share knowledge with students and also get new knowledge from students. Children today are sophisticated and technology literate so they can also learn a lot from them.

"The best place to educate children is a school that provides a sense of comfort to people and students". This trust should be given to SMK Grafika Desa Putera because it is not only the educational orientation that builds children's character, the digital world keeps up with the times, but also the academic atmosphere that makes children and parents feel comfortable and safe. Quality culture is inherent in school management and teachers. This can be seen from the positive response to every input from parents and alumni. The relationship between students, parents and teachers has no boundaries, so it feels like we are in one family, at least this is what we feel. "Learn to be someone who works right"

Impressions and messages while working at SMK Desa Putera Of course, I have had a lot of memories for about 50 years working at SMK Grafika Desa Putera. The one that impressed me the most was teaching the Freelance Lettering Technique. Why is it because it is unique to compose with letters one by one and read them in reverse letters, now that is unique, unlike now it is just facing a computer, typing and immediately letters can be seen and read And I can also get to know a lot about the characters from various tribes, so that I can teach and get to know a lot about the children's behavior. Of course there was something most impressive for me when I gathered, studied together with Graphic teachers throughout Indonesia, which at that time only had 5 Graphic schools in our country, namely: STM Grafika Malang, STM Garafika Mardi Yuana, STM Grafika Desa Putera, STM Grafika Lastra Foundation and STM Grafika 4 Garuda Kemayoran. For about 3 months, I studied together for the advancement of Graphic Schools in our country. My message is not to be afraid to learn about graphic science because the graphics industry will never die. Without Graphics, we are the ones who will die, die because we don't know what Graphic really means. Therefore, let's register immediately at SMK Grafika Desa Putera. "Surely We Can"

In 2002 I joined SMK Grafika Desa Putera. I saw from outside the expanse of a very large school area. There are Elementary Schools, Junior High Schools and Vocational High Schools into one complex. One thing that amazes me is that there is a printing unit, an orphanage and a health center. At that time the printery was very busy receiving orders from outside, and there was even a candle making unit that was sold out. The thing that makes me feel at home here is the beautiful environment. At the time of monitoring at the company there was a sense of pride that the graduates from SMK Grafika Desa Putera were highly trusted in the industrial environment until the coming pandemic. I salute the alumni of SMK Grafika Desa Putera who occupy important positions in the company where they are still strong in paying attention to their younger siblings who study at SMK Grafika Desa Putera. The inner bond is maintained even though they have become alumni and work at the company. Assistance for new graduates who work in companies is given with great enthusiasm.
