Gail and Tiana

On Thursday Room 1 had two special visitors - Gail and Tiana - who came to teach us about Samoa.
They answered lots of questions about living in Samoa and we learnt lots of things like:

  • it's hot and muggy (Amelia)
  • it's a tropical country (Antonia)
  • the most popular animals are pigs and chickens (Caleb)
  • there is lots of tropical fruit in Samoa (Scarlett)
  • that bat tastes like burnt chicken (Patrick)
  • boys wear lavalavas as well as girls but they are shorter (Alex)
  • the buses are very different, people pile on and strangers sit in your lap and there is lots of loud music (Antonia)
  • the two main islands are Upolo and Savai'i (Terran)
Gail and Tiana also taught us a song Savalivali Means Go For a Walk. They taught us a clapping game and how to wear a lavalava.
