Samoan language week

Samoan language week - Vaiaso Le o Gagana

Last week was Samoan language week. Room 7 celebrated it by getting our experts in Room 7 to help teach us about the Samoan culture and its beautiful language. We learnt about Siapo and created a Room 7 tapa. It was a lot of fun scrunching up our paper to create the effect of the Siapo. We learnt to greet and farewell people as well as thank them. We had a healthy cooking experience where we made panikeke (we didn't deep fry them but used a donut maker instead) our poem of the week was moe moe Pepe which our girls recorded for us. Finally on Friday we dressed to impress in our cultural clothes. What a great week!  
Here are some pictures of our fun week and some helpful resources
