Sisiga Fu'a 2014

Talofa, Talofa Lava!  What a special day to celebrate the Independence of our beautiful Homeland of Samoa.  Our Aoga were lead by Pola around the main road of Glen Innes carrying the Samoan flag with pride and dignity.  Click here to see more photos of this memorable day.

The Vasega go to Glen Innes Library every Friday.  During Samoan language week they listened to a well known Samoan myth called, Sina and Tuna.  At the end of the story the vasega children stood up and sang a song about the story.  Later, we sang 'Savalivali means go for a walk' then coloured in some pictures of flowers (aute).  Malo lava tamaiiti!  Tuu mau lou measina.
