Noa'ia! That's Hello! In the Rotuma Language.My information report today will share with you some important facts and things I found about the islands of Rotuma.

Rotuma is located in the Southern Hemisphere. To the north of Rotuma is Tuvalu, to the east is Samoa, and to the south is Fiji. West of Rotuma is Vanuatu.

There are less than 3,000 people living on Rotuma. Many more of the population live on the Island Fiji.
There are only 3 languages that are spoken. Rotuman language and English and Fijian.

Fact:
It is 2,715 km from Auckland to Rotuma.

Learning about Rotuma made me think how my culture like how I am half-samoan. 
It has been really exciting that I got to learn new things about the Island of Rotuma. I learnt about the population, the islands near and the languages they speak.
