KENESE | Ages 3–6

Every journey begins with God.

"Every strong foundation begins with the first step."

Named after the first book of the Bible.

Kenese (Genesis) represents the beginning of every student's journey.

​

This is where strong foundations are formed. Through fun, encouraging and age-appropriate learning, our youngest students are introduced to the beauty of Siva Sāmoa while developing fundamental skills, coordination and positive class habits.

​

Students will learn:

• Basic Siva Sāmoa movements, posture, and technique

• Rhythm and coordination

• Christian values such as kindness, love and respect, alongside positive class behaviour

• Confidence through movement

• Age-appropriate Sāmoan language and cultural understanding

LUMANA'I | Ages 7–12

We prepare for the future God has planned.

"Today's learners become tomorrow's leaders."

As students grow, they begin to explore Siva Sāmoa with greater confidence, developing their understanding of culture, storytelling and their contribution to the group.

​

This stage encourages students to become more confident in their identity, abilities and contribution to the group.

​

Students will learn:
