SSAB Apia Megastore...

It's been a real blessing to come back from Samoa and to start writing our next books plus also looking, hopefully, for a couple of art exhibitions in South Auckland with proposals that I submitted yesterday for schools and communities to be involved in.

This particular shelf pic was taken of one of our books that was currently selling in Samoa, we've since dropped off several more copies of a variety of book and have more to fill in the order.

It is such a blessing to be able to share our Samoan stories with a wider audience and to also hopefully create conversations whereby people are able to share these important stories that help to maintain important and significant events as well as cultural concepts that are beginning to fade away with each generation living outside of the 'mother land' and dare I say it, within Samoa itself.

There is much to be said about the curriculum in NZ which doesn't truly reflect Pasifika populations in what is being taught in many schools but in Samoa, it's important that much information about Samoa need to be shared and taught so that important information continues for the next generations...
