It’s not everyday you get to be in the presence of a King. Most of our students have never been to Tonga, and yet on Saturday night, they humbly sat, full of excitement, waiting to welcome His Majesty King Tupou VI to Brisbane. We remind our students to always be loud & proud to be Tongan and what better way to show and experience it.
Mālō ‘aupito .layt + for the invitation to be part of the night 🇹🇴

Recognising, encouraging & supporting our future Tongans. Well done Kalapu Lalofale Brisbane
