This is a day dedicated to the importance of education for kindy children through to university students.
Sapate Ako is not just about learning in the classroom. It reminds us that education requires love, care and nourishment, both intellectually and physically.
The Havea families made this a great day for the children who wore their school uniforms to church. They had a lovely lunch with lots of great food.
Sapate Ako is a reminder that learning is a journey we should cherish with the support of our families and educators.
