Tongan Language Week Celebrations!

Room 8 was very spoilt on Friday. First, Marie (Zejm's mum) taught us how to make Otai, a delicious Tongan Juice you eat with biscuits. The best part was, of course, getting to try it. Yum! Here is a link to a video if you want to learn to make it yourself. How to make Otai.

After that Phoenix, Litiane and  Arianna from Room 17 popped in to teach us about the traditional Tongan clothes that you wear to celebrate special occasions. Richie and Ina were 2 very lucky students who got to try on a Ta'ovala (the traditional woven mat skirt) and a kiekie  (ornamental girdle/belt). 

Room 8 would like to say malo 'aupito (thank you very much) to Marie and the Room 17 girls for helping us celebrate Tongan Language Week in a special way.
