Aualuma and Aumaga a Malaeola is based in Auckland, and is the first programme of its kind catering to young people 11 years and older.
It teaches children the traditional ways of Samoan life dating back some 3,000 years.
PMN News reports the official launch of Aualuma and Aumaga a Malaeola will be on 24 June at the Malaeola Hall in Mangere.
To’aiga’otumua Musuiaiga Neil Tapu-Sitagata, the lead facilitator for the program, says in Samoan culture they can't go forward without the blessings of parents, the church and community leaders.
