Samoan language week guest

Today we were very lucky to have Zhali's great, great grandparents come to Room 8 and share their knowledge of Samoa with the class. We learnt about different cloth items Samoan people wear. We were lucky to have a singing lesson of the  Samoan national anthem.
We are lucky to have a class from rich culturay backgrounds that can share this knowledge with us.

Samoan National Anthem

This week we are learning the Samoan National Anthem. We will have a house competition with the whole school on Friday to see who has been practising.



SAMOAN language week


We are celebrating Samoan Language week in our class and across the school. I asked the children what they wanted to learn many of them said to count to 10. I have done a lesson on counting 1-10 in Samoan and we will be practising with a buddy tomorrow.
