St Paul Academy

Samoa’s Tafaigata Prison transforms into education centre

The school academy of over 300 students is now in full throttle with classes starting from Early Childhood Education (ECE) right through to Year 8.

Vice Principal Tevaga Lemalu Pio Tevaga said the location of the school is convenient to most of their students.

“The location of St. Paul’s Academy eliminates the extra task by parents to commute all the way to town or to Vaitele Uta where the nearest schools are. Instead, families living close by, especially with those who have moved over from Sogi, have a school right next door to send their children,” Tevaga said.
