Samoan Language Week 2016 at Pt England School

Celebrating our different languages and cultures has been huge at our school so far this year. From our massive Fiafia event in Term 1 to this weeks focus on the Samoan Language. Samoan language videos from our archives played on PENN (Pt England News Network) throughout the week. Today at assembly it was a privilege to see our Samoan students share their beautiful language and culture with the rest of the school.
