Team Tui Assembly Cook Island Language Week

This Morning it was Team Tui’s assembly. This week was Cook Island language week so our Assembly was based off Cook Island language week and Matariki. I was able to read a line in assembly and I was reading the Whakatauki or the theme for the year. Connect me to the traditions and culture of my homeland. Which means to me that we should all embrace our culture and be proud of who we are. We also did a dance. There were 7 girls performing a Cook Island dance with some Cook Island music. I found this really fun because I got to learn some new moves.

Red, White and Brass

A few weeks ago Team Tui had the opportunity to have a day out of school and got to the cinemas to watch Red, White and Brass. In my opinion the Movie was really exciting, I was so proud because the movie was based on my culture and what my Country can do. This Tongan movie really made me proud to be a Tongan Girl. I am so grateful my Culture and Country appeared on the big screen.
