Faafetai i le Atua i lona faatasi mai, ma faamanuia mai ia te aʻu ma loʻu aiga, paʻaga ma uo. Ou te talitonu i le Atua e fesoasoani mai ma faatasi mai o aʻu tonu e fai, alofa ma fesoasoani mai. My grandparents Bill and Kitty Watters arrived from Glasgow on the Captain Hobson in 1956 with £60 in their pocket, two weans, and the promise of a job. My mum, Sia Watters, née Chong-nee, left Samoa in 1975 to live with her sister here in Aotearoa with the hope of a better life. I am a proud daughter and granddaughter of immigrants.
