University of Hawaii, in Oahu...



Image result for university of hawaii images Went to visit the University of Hawaii in Oahu and very interesting to meet with a native Hawaiian teacher there who talked about the different things that they have experienced as Indigenous peoples.

It was also neat to be able to gift two books to their campus libraries of: "Tagaloalagi" (performance play) and "Tagaloalagi and Fue" (Samoan bilingual picture book) to add to their Pacific collection of books.

It was also interesting to visit the campus and to see how huge the campus is with the different amenities especially in seeing the large football fields, stadium and games area. I think a campus I would have liked to have attended if given the opportunity in as an undergrad.

But also looking forward to returning to NZ to relax after Waikiki and the whirlwind trip we've had. So much to see and do and to also look forward to hopefully coming back again with the rest of the family...
