About

Aoao le tama e tusa ma ona ala, a o'o ina matua e le toe te'a ese ai

Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it

Your Child's Malaga (Journey)

 

 

I first attended Aoga at 10 months, where I developed my sense of belonging through primary caregiving, warm relationships and lots of exploration.

Under 2's

When I turned 2 years, I was able to play in the wider room with other 2-3year olds.  My exploration extended to full positive participation.  My interests broadened to all curriculum areas including arts and crafts, music, family/culture, language, literacy and numeracy.

02

Top 3's

 

 

I was thrilled to transition to the Rising 5s class, where I upskilled my learning and development.  I was proud to be able to recognise and write my name competently.  Most importantly, I strengthened my Samoan identity and created the foundation of my Christian values and beliefs.

Rising 5's

I received Most Improved Overall Award (Agava'a Lautele), and presented the farewell speech (lauga faamavae) on my graduation day.  Faafetai i le Atua.
