Talofa lava and welcome to The taste of Samoa Oh Hi my name is Rosie and it is Samoan language week Right now Room 14 and i are at the taste of Samoa,The taste of Samoa is when you taste food from Samoa and it is when you learn more about Samoa.
So the first station i went to was the talo so this photo is us learning about talo at so these to boys are poe and Ian and they are telling us about talo i learnt that they shave the talo with a can so what they do they get a can and they cut the bottom and use the sharp end to shave the talo skin of and they cook it with big and their things they eat.
here is Sili and Mamere teaching about the famous drink at Samoa koko they have the same ingredients to how to make Milo but they use cocoa beans so what they do with the cocoa beans they take of the shell or skin of but you don't need a knife or a sharp end of a can you just use your hands and then you smash it until it turns into the small bits then you add in the sugar and then hot water but no milk that is so weird when you do not use milk for your Milo but it is okay because that is part of their culture.
here is Sherona and Harriet telling kids about the Samoan jewellery on the right side those are the boys jewellery and on the left that is the girls jewellery most wear it to celebrations and dances so after that they let us try on some bracelets and necklaces.
and here is more jewellery but it was just a fun day.
