Tongan Language Week


We had a wonderful week. It was great to hear lots of adults and children in the playground greeting each other in Tongan.
  • We kicked off the week on day 1 with a list of greetings for the teachers to use in their classrooms. 
  • Then on day 2 the children presented each class with a counting poster The children had made these posters using Kid Pix.
  • On day 3 the children gave each classroom a ‘Tongan Colours Poster’ that we had made using our own photos.  
  • Day 4 the children gave the classroom teachers some more classroom instructions to learn.
  • On day 5 each class was given a list of classroom objects. 
The Tongan children all loved being teachers for the week and can’t wait to do it all again next year.
