❤️🇼🇸 Manuia le Vaiaso o le Gagana Sāmoa ❤️🇼🇸
This week we proudly celebrate Vaiaso o le Gagana Sāmoa by embracing the beauty of the Samoan language, culture, stories, songs and traditions that enrich our learning community every day.
This year’s theme:
“E afua mai i mauga tele manuia o le nu’u” — “From the high mountains come the blessings of the village.”
As we learn, play and grow together, we honour the importance of language, identity, belonging and community. We are grateful to our tamariki, aiga and wider community for sharing and celebrating the richness of Gagana Sāmoa with us.
Fa’afetai tele lava for helping us nurture proud, confident and culturally connected learners 🤍
