Malo lava le soifua ma le lagi e mamala,

Mai le loloto o la’u fatu, e momoli atu ai la’u fa’afetai i le au faigaluega, faiaoga, fesoasoani i le ofisa, umu kuka, ma tagata uma mo le lagolago ma tapuaina o le vaiaso o le Gagana Samoa.

From the depths of my heart, I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone of our staff – hostels, kitchen, admin, support, teaching, our entire Uesele aiga, for your patience, understanding, support, encouragement, assistance, and guidance in the lead up to, and throughout this week of Samoan Language.  I hope you found it enriching, inspirational and enjoyable.

 Thank you to staff who purchased and wore their togiga yesterday and today.  Don’t we look AMAZING!!! 

In keeping with this year’s Samoan Language theme: E mitamita la’u gagana; ae maua’a lou fa’asinomaga.

Let us continue to be proud of all the amazing languages we speak at home, in our communities and here at Uesele, allowing us to stay grounded in our identity. 

Ia manuia lava le fa’iuga o le vaiaso o le gagana Samoa, manuia fo’i la’asaga o le aso malolo.

Wishing you all a wonderful end to the week, and well-deserved restful weekend. 

Fa’afetai, fa’afetai, fa’afetai tele lava. 

Ma le ava ma le fa’aaloalo lava,

Joanne Ah-Sam
