“SI’OTO’OFA HE MAKA”
Malo e lelei
SPC has a thriving Tongan community, our Tongan parents committee are active supporters of our Tongan students with their education and cultural identity at SPC. We are all very proud of the academic and cultural achievements of our Tongan students at SPC and strive for this to continue. We welcome all our Tongan families to become part of our Community, we hold community meetings twice a term and cover such topics as academic tracking, cultural performances and other relevant issues. Come along to one of our meetings if you wish to be a part of our community.
