Welcome Nadi Special School




We are so delighted to welcome our friends at Nadi Special School to our blog.

We hope the children will enjoy using our site and especially look forward to continuing friendships after our visit.



Belinda, Sue and Jill had an amazing time getting to know the fantastic, hard working staff and the very eager children at Nadi, Ba and Sigatoka Special Schools. We were so impressed to see how well the children and teachers are doing, despite a significant lack of resources. Truly inspiring and humbling for us.


We went expecting to be teaching the staff how to use our curriculum and found they are already using it and doing a fantastic job. The staff quickly learned how to write goals and ILP's with PD from Sue. It is very exciting to see that the Hume Region Special School's Curriculum is relevant not only in Australia, but also to Fijian children. We look forward to future partnerships in teacher professional development.

We were treated to lots of wonderful meals and learnt how to make roti bread. Room 13 children will definately get to experience this.


The entire Nadi, Ba and Sigatoka staff were so generous, welcoming us to come into their classrooms and shared their experiences of teaching and learning with a high level of professionalism. Truly commendable.

Our thanks to Master Naiker and Belinda for organising such a wonderful exchange of professional practise. May there be many more exchanges, such as this.
