This will allow us to know who we are, where we come from and what our future may hold. We will also look into story-telling and remember who we are through Pacific poetry and Pacific song lyrics. The learning that will take place in this course is in preparation for the TWO INTERNAL Assessments that you will be sitting during the Semester.
