Samoa Service Trip
When it is safe to do so, Marsden hopes to reinstate our annual senior service trip to Samoa.
This trip usually takes place in the July school holidays and is a chance for students to work with schools in Savai'i that have connections to a church in the village of Safotu. Lasting approximately 8-10 days our students visit three schools, spending time with Samoan students helping them with reading and conversation. Each evening they assist with reading and writing at the church homework centre. Our students are accompanied by two Teachers and while there are immersed in traditional Samoan ways of life and leisure.
This is a wonderful opportunity for students to show initiative and leadership in a service capacity while helping Marsden to grow relationships with the three Samoan Schools. We hope we can visit Samoa again soon.
