Tsunami Samoa

Talofa e i si o tatou atunu'u peleina o Samoa. Mafatia le loto...
12.30 this afternoon Australia is also sending assistance to Samoa, search and rescue assistance. Help coming from the ground in Samoa with medical professionals who were on holiday now in the Samoan hospitals assisting...human spirit has been stirred and rises again to show what really lies deep in us.
I've sat watched and listened to the half hourly reports on TV One. Towards the end of the midday report a tourist was interviewed. They shared of being in the Lalomanu Tourist Fales. They were moved to safety first by the resort staff. They pointed out how these locals tended to them first before tending to themselves and their loved ones. It wasn't until all tourist were safe did they return to the shore to get their own to safety and find loved ones who had been killed.
Our people put others first...others first...o le tagata Samoa - o se auauna fa'amaoni- o le fa'amuamua o leisi - i taimi uma. O se a'oa'oga taua lea mo'i tatou, a'oa'oga na fa'alia muamua e le tatou Matai o i le lagi.
Talosia e maua e i si o tatou atunu'u le fesoasoani e tatau ona o'o atu i ai. Ia maua fo'i i tatou nei o lo'o nofo mamao atu - le loto alofa ina ia tatou taumafai i so'o auala e fesoasoani atu.
Ia fa'amafanafana atu le Atua i lenei taimi i si o tatou atunu'u peleina o Samoa.
Talanoa mai, o se tasi fo'i auala e mafai ai ona fesoasoani le tasi ile tasi.

Talofa, our school (Tamaki Intermediate) went to Samoa in September this year. We visited one of the schools affected by the tsunami and talking to the teachers there it was very sad to hear their stories. Our students had a lot of fun interacting with the Saleapaga students too.
