Thank you Jan for leading and inspiring, serving the cause faithfully. Rest in His loving arms and the Lord comfort your aiga at this time. Ia Manuia Lau Malaga, Mama Malelega and team ❤️🙏🏽🌺

🇹🇴 Happy Tongan language week

This year’s theme for Uike Kātoanga’i ‘o e lea faka-Tonga - Tonga Language Week - is Ke Tu'uloa 'a e lea faka-Tönga′ 'i Aotearoa, which means Sustaining the Tonga Language in Aotearoa.

Ke Tu'uloa 'a e lea faka-Tonga 'i Aotearoa has a positive and progressive connotation. To support the overarching Language Weeks theme of Sustainability, the word TU'ULOA in the theme this year means to continuously grow, nurture, and sustain a valued idea, practice, event, or memory in an enduring way.

Celebrating our amazing early childhood teachers/kaiako/faiaoga who are predominately women for the tireless mahi they do in teaching our very young tamariki.

We celebrate teachers today for their thoughtfulness and their actions in their classrooms and workplaces. Thank you for making our childrens world a place of safety and belonging.
