Vaiaso o le Gagana Samoa - Samoa Language Week
E afua mai i mauga tetele manuia o le 'nu'u (From the high mountains are the blessings of the village) is the theme for Samoa Language week this year.
At Auckland Central, students and staff expanded their knowledge about Samoan culture and language by making siapo bookmarks and learning about the use of different ‘ula (necklaces) worn by Samoan people. Students and teachers enjoyed performing the sāsā clapping moves which made some amazing noise.
It is lovely to see and hear Samoa in action!

Auckland Central embraced Rotuman Language Week by learning about Rotuma through oral presentations and a wall display. Students took part in activities including the making of a tefui (garland).
