St Mary's College Pasifika Roots Talanoa 2020

Jacob Sheehan from St Mary's College Auckland

The SMC Pasifika Student and Parent Committee are proud to present their first ever Pasifika Roots Talanoa / conference. This is a free event which will be held on Saturday 18 July in the St Mary’s College Cecilia Maher Hall here at 11 New Street, Ponsonby, Auckland.

The aim of the Talanoa is to provide support for young people to help them thrive at school and within their families and communities. There will be wonderful guest speakers including past pupils Lupesina Koro and Nele Kalolo, as well as food and entertainment.

As this is our first Talanoa, we are in need of a small amount of financial support to help us bring it all together. If you can help in any small way please email jsheehan@stmaryak.school.nz

We will also provide great recognition for your support both pre and post-event.
