Centre for Non-formal Education for Self-employment in Agriculture
Our Introduction
Welcome to Tutu Rural Training Centre
Tutu Rural Training Centre (Tutu) was founded in 1969 by Fr. Michael Bransfield and assisted by Br. Kevin Foote on a 1200 acre Taveuni freehold estate owned by the Society of Mary. Volunteers came from villages throughout the Cakaudrove Province to help build the first buildings and hydro at Tutu. The volunteers were provided with meals and accommodation only. Repayment of the contribution of the first volunteers remains a central part of the Tutu philosophy of providing the people of Cakaudrove with a rural training centre, free of tuition fees. Brother Eremondo who was at Tutu in these formative years noted in an interview for FAO Study: “The struggle that the volunteers from the province faced during the establishment of Tutu should not be overlooked. Youths from all age groups gave up their time and effort to establish Tutu under very difficult circumstances”.
