Salutation:
Greetings your Eminence and fellow Apifo'ou Family! This is the penultimate week of the final Term of this academic year 2024.
Admin Briefs
This is the final week for the public exams and we're indeed grateful to our senior students as they've displayed a sense of commitment and composure throughout the duration of these exams. The rest of the students are kept preoccupied with a variety of activities. It's obvious that a lot of our students are already in holiday mode, for they seem to come and go as they pleased.
Weekly Eucharist
The Deputy Principal Fr. Valu was the main celebrant today in the weekly celebration of the Eucharist. It is vital that the staff and students continue to participate in the weekly Eucharist, as it is the lifeblood of all that we do here at the college.
Talent Quest for Students and Teachers
To wrap up this week, the Levels 1 - 5 students performed different items and they were judged in 3 categories: Individual show, Group Item, and Tiktok! There was also a Karaoke competition for the teachers!
Seen here are the overall winners - the Level 1 students.

Final Day of Exam
We can tell from the faces of our students, teachers and parents a palpable sense of relief that the exams are finally over! Of course we'll worry about the results later, but for now it's time to celebrate!
College Agriculture Project
After our Prize Giving on Friday next week, we'll harvest the 8 acres of cassava in the college plantation at Hihifo. We're fortunate that we don't have to export these products overseas. The Director of Nishi Trading, Mr. Minoru jr, and his company are buying it all! This works well in our favour as all the income from this project will be distributed among our teachers and helpers just in time for Christmas!
PTA Executive Committee
The Chairperson of the school's PTA Executive Committee, Mrs. Malia Lita Fisilau, hosted the members of this important committee for their final meeting at the Swimming Pool Cafe. As can be seen below, all the members attended!
