Malo to samoan language week

Afio mai to Samoan language Week.

The cultural leaders opened the week with their national costume and dance.

In room 6 we have been exploring the Samoan Cultural with general facts.  We searched
for our fact card around the room and collected information for our Jigsaw Reading Hunt.

Next our Samoan experts in class gave us a lesson on greetings and phrases in Samoan.

Then we moved onto counting to ten in Samoan for math before finishing our math session with a clapping game in Samoan.

Happy birthday Suzanne Aubert

Ra Whanau Suzanne Aubert

In room 6 we have been celebrating Suzanne Aubert’s birthday by making flowers for the theme, “Always choose the little flower of hope.”

Suzanne looked after sick people, people with disabilities, children whose families couldn’t care for them, and the elderly. The work she started continues to this day in places like Wellington’s Compassion Soup Kitchen.

Suzanne left her home in France and came to Aotearoa to support the Maori people. She honoured the Maori people, their tikanga, reo and rongoa. Suzanne loved God and always thought about what he wanted her to do, not what she wanted, even when that wasn’t easy.
