Ola Fou Learnings

OLA FOU is a holistic programme dedicated to nurturing the potential of Pasifika youth in South Auckland, focusing on three key outcomes: academic support, university preparation, and workforce development. At its core, OLA FOU provides weekly tutoring sessions designed to help students succeed in their studies while building confidence and a strong foundation for their future. The programme is tailored to meet the needs of Pasifika youth, with mentors who offer both academic guidance and cultural support.

Beyond tutoring, OLA FOU is committed to preparing students for life after high school. Through workshops focused on university applications and scholarships, we equip students with the tools and knowledge they need to pursue higher education. For those not pursuing tertiary studies, our workforce development component ensures students are ready to enter the job market, offering practical skills, career guidance, and leadership opportunities. OLA FOU’s approach ensures that every student is supported, whether they’re headed to university or into the workforce, empowering them to take their next steps with confidence and pride.
