Which Curriculum Subjects do we cater for?

Languages

Students will gain instruction in the Fijian language, to help them to get about and speak with local people; however, English is also spoken on the islands, so they can practise without pressure! Learning the Fijian language also helps to unlock many of the traditions and rituals that Fijians practise, and will enable students to explore their customs in more depth.
