Video - Tupou College students perform Lakalaka
The FWC Education Office has a "get-together" social function each year for the Tongatapu college/high-schools where students prepare and perform various skits and traditional programs.
In 2001, Tupou College students performed the traditional "Lakalaka" dance to the tune of Hindi Music. The theme of the choreagraphy revolves the continuing conflict between Tupou College and another college (Tonga College)
A very creative effort by the boys, and staff. Congratulations Tupou College and you can read more about the college on their website @ http://www.tct.to
