Mālō 'aupito to the National Tongan American Society for your support of Mana Academy! We are deeply honored that our Mana Scholars were invited to perform at your 30th anniversary celebration—a milestone that reflects your dedication to uplifting our Pacific Islander communities. To close our scholars' performance of this special night, they sang, "Teu Hiki 'a Hoku Le'o", a powerful and heartfelt song that carries deep meaning. We extend our sincerest gratitude to Luseane Salamasina Fakatou, the talented composer of this beautiful piece, for granting us permission to share her work. Your music continues to inspire and uplift us all 🙏🏾❤ Thank you, NTAS, for creating spaces where culture, education, and community thrive. Here’s to many more years of impact! #ManaAcademy #NTAS30Years #ManaScholars Song: Teu Hiki 'a Hoku Le'o Composer: Luseane Salamasina Fakatou Song Arrangement: To'o Folau Acoustic Accompaniment: Nu'uausala Tilo III (fb)

Last night, we had the honor of celebrating the 30th anniversary of the National Tongan American Society (NTAS) and their unwavering dedication to serving the Tongan and Pacific Islander communities in Utah. From the moment Mana Academy opened its doors in 2013, NTAS has been a strong partner and supporter, uplifting our Mana Scholars and school with love and generosity. Our scholars were privileged to be invited to this momentous occasion and share in the celebration by performing a few Tongan numbers. Thank you, NTAS, for your three decades of service, advocacy, and leadership. We are deeply grateful for the love and support you continue to show our scholars and community.
