Giftedness from Pacific perspectives: our latest early learning resource
7 April, 2025
We’ve just released the latest early learning resources to help you support your gifted early learners.
Giftedness from Pacific perspectives is a collection of four videos where Pacific experts talanoa in their own language about their understanding of what it means to be gifted. Learn more about what that looks like from a Tongan, Cook Islands Māori, Samoan, and Tokelauan perspective across the four videos.
Each of the videos also comes with written summaries, which highlight the key points of the videos and provide different ways you can engage with Pacific children and their families appropriately. They’re designed to help you create a supportive environment that nurtures the talents and abilities of gifted Pacific children in your setting.
You can find the videos and their summaries here:
