Casebrook Intermediate School celebrated Samoan Language Week in Week 7 of this term. This was done by a daily powerpoint with language, history, interesting facts and stories.

Our school has a rich cultural diversity running through it, with Samoan being one of the many cultures we celebrate and acknowledge.

This year Samoan Language Week was celebrated with a "Design a Tee-Shirt Competition" where our students were encouraged to create a tee shirt using language, symbols, patterns or images based around Samoa. With over 100 entries, it was tricky to select winners from each year group.

Congratulations to the following students for their efforts in the competition.
