Description

More than just an old school building, this site in Afao marks a revolutionary chapter in women’s education and healthcare in American Samoa. What started as a missionary training centre for girls became the territory’s first hospital annex and later, a pioneering nursing school.

Highlights

  • Learn about the island’s first infant healthcare training
  • Once home to the territory’s earliest nursing programme
  • Visible from the roadside (but guarded by dogs – admire from a distance!)
