Mālama Kuleana (Taking care of our responsibilities)

Papa ‘Ulu has been BUSY! We have been exploring our classroom toys, our outdoor centers, the play ground, and so much more! Here are a few pictures of the last 2 days of our first full day week. Enjoy!

“Pau ka ‘ai, hiki ia’u…..”

Aloha kākou!

The start of a new week. The keiki have adjusted well to our daily routine and are practicing the many routines that we go throughout the day.  One phrase that you may be hearing is a phrase asking to be excused from the table after snack and lunch.  They are all doing a great job at practicing it and will be masters of it in a few weeks.

"Pau ka 'ai, hiki ia'u ke ha'alele i ke pākaukau" (I'm finished eating, may I please be excused from the table)

Please don’t forget to bring in your goals for you keiki! Our lei piko is shaping up and is a constant reminder to us all that we should strive to reach our goals everyday.   Mahalo and HAPPY MONDAY!

 

E Mālama Pono Kākou!

NO SCHOOL TOMORROW 8/8/2014

Please be safe as the approaching storms make their way to our islands. We will see you all on Monday unless otherwise contacted.  Aloha

Our mountain Keahiakahoe (also the name of our building)  serves as our weather vane here at He'eia.  Today we saw clouds gather and a soft gentle rain fall upon us.

Orientation has been going smoothly and we are well on our way to a fabulous 2014-2015 school year (makahiki kula). Here are a few snapshots of our first day. I apologize if I didn’t get a photo of your child but I promise that you will have many photo’s to come.

Here’s to a great year! E holomua kākou!
