WELCOME TO TERM 2 LEARNING 😄😃
I was very fortunate in the holidays time to attend a Pasifika Fono with over 350 in attendance of educators through out the country. The theme of the Fono was NA LEO I KO OLAU
Translated means: Where we come from and who we come from.
lANGUAGE IDENTITY AND CULTURE
Is a pivotal component of who Pasifika peoples are and the values that are strongly embedded within
Pasifika peoples .
Take outs from the Fono were:
Building Cultural confidence with our Children to enable them to be confident speakers and leaders.
Pasifika Champions are Pasifika peoples (Parents, Grand Parents relatives, Aiga, Fanau,Teachers/Faiagoa)
who mentor and encourage our pasifika children to build their capacity in all areas of growing in leadership, and other areas such as the four pillars of well being:
Spiritual
Physical
Mental
Spiritual
