A ONE-WEEK celebration has begun for the 40th anniversary since the establishment of the Fiji Latter- day St Church College.

Yesterday students of the college released 400 red balloons at their school grounds in Tamavua, signifying 40 years of its existence.

College principal Salote Maiwiriwiri said it used to be known as the Latter-day St Technical College.

"Initially it was set up for technical vocational courses and in the early 1990s the desire for education began to change, in which we started to provide more academic classes," Sister Maiwiriwiri said.

"The school is fully funded by the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-day Saints (LDS), therefore enrolment is for LDS students. But the whole approach to education that we are celebrating is the holistic development of the child having being successful spiritually, academically, physically, socially, emotionally and with a new addition of financial support with regards to our education," she said.
