A group of students from Sauniatu Primary School visited the FAO office to learn more about the organization and what they do in the region. Accompanied by their teachers year seven and eight students were welcomed by FAO staff at Subregional Office in Apia, Samoa.

Assistant FAO Representative, Philip Tuivavalagi gave a brief introduction of the organization before staff began the rest of the programme which included a fun quiz to test the students’ knowledge of FAO followed by a short video documentary on community-based fisheries programme in Samoa, Tonga and Fiji titled, Voices of the Pacific.

The students left FAO with caps and an information package to take home. FAO was one stop of a tour of UN agencies the students visited.
