Developing students skills in STEM

Building a better future for these students

Helping our Pasifika students

Welcome to Amanaki Stem Academy

The ASA project was formally established in early 2017 by co-founder couple Viliami Teumohenga, Tanya Koro and their kids. The idea was born by the needs of the Pasifika community, and a challenging future.


The present is a world of rapidly developing technology and scientific advancements, hence the future job market will require individuals with the technical skillset to navigate such a complex environment. Unfortunately, the core subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) which support an individual to succeed in such a future is lacking amongst our Pacific Island students. Statistically, Pacific Island students are the lowest-performing ethnic group in these subject areas.
