On Aug 28, on the week before the Mini
Games started, I was taken around a number of Games Villages by Hélène. (Hélène, a French woman, teaches English in a school on Wallis.)
We went up to Lano to look at the Games Village there. (PNG, Tonga,
Fiji, Samoa and Wallis and Futuna, however, resided at the Lycée Village.)
While moving around Lano, we met a few people walking around the
school on that afternoon after a downpour.

Among them were sisters Ophélie and Lipelata – they are part French
and Wallisian.
Ophélie told me in very good English that she was studying in France,
and am excited about her studies.
I said Wallis might need a good translator like her when they sent
teams over for the 2015 Pacific Games.
She is one of a kind – someone who is excited about her school work
and what she will be doing in the future.
