Village & School Visit

VILLAGE & SCHOOL VISITS

While at Nukubati, you will have the opportunity to visit our local villages and their junior school. All of the staff on Nukubati come from the three local villages just over the water on the mainland and they were all educated at the local school (many of their children are at the school now too). Enjoy the authentic experience of being taken into the homes and lives of our staff which they are only too willing to share with you. Take the time to hear their stories and gain an insight into their lives.

Church services are held on Sundays and guests are welcome to join. The Christian service starts at 10am. The magical sound of a Fijian choir without professional training or instrumental accompaniment must be heard to be believed. Enjoy learning how the everyday Fijian lives and share a cup of tea with some of the families you will get to know during your stay at Nukubati.

NUKUBATI COMMUNITY FOUNDATION

Nukubati Private Island has established a Foundation for the purpose of supporting our local school, Qumusea District School. This school is a primary school and it draws its pupils from the three local villages and the surrounding area.
The Foundation has been awarding Secondary school scholarships and University scholarships to deserving students over the past 20 years.

In this time, the Foundation has also funded various infrastructure projects at the school, the major ones being the construction of the current main school building consisting of 3 classrooms, a library and headmaster’s office ; the construction of a kindergarten building ; a boys and girls toilet block; and most recently the installation of a 10kw solar power plant.

The Foundation’s primary source of funds is donations from guests of Nukubati Private Island. These donations are then matched dollar for dollar by Nukubati Private Island.
