The legend of Kava Tonga

Our culture has key practices that teach custom and tradition.

One such practice is the drinking of kava in formal and informal settings.  Have you wondered why kava is so important to the Tongan community?

Today our literacy class spent some time learning about the legend of Kava Tonga.

A very sad story of a couple who sacrificed their daughter, named Kava.  The couple - Fefanga and Fefafa believed that it was necessary to fulfil their obligation and duty to their king.   

I feel that Tonga respects their king and are very loyal to what they believe in.
