Pacific Language Weeks are underway in Porirua
Rotuman Language Week runs from Sunday 9 May to Saturday 15 May 2021.
Noa’ia everybody, Rotuman Pacific Language week is here!
This year’s theme for the Rotuman Language Week is Tutur häk ne måür lelei – which refers to the four pillars of life and wellbeing (spiritual, physical, psychological, and social) and it acknowledges and celebrates the strength and resilience of our Pacific communities during the Covid-19 pandemic.
This is the first of the nine Pacific Language Week celebrations for 2021 and as always, it started with a formal flag raising in Porirua, which members of the Rotuman community, the Mayor and elected members attended.
