We would like to sincerely thank Reverend Martin and Faletua Toreka Mariota for their loto alofa (kind hearts) and willingness to offer the Piki Ake programme to their aiga (church families) and tupulaga (youth).

Their support has helped students strengthen their literacy skills, preparing them more effectively for secondary schooling and NCEA, and opening up greater avanoa (opportunities) for future career pathways.
