  1. One fun thing I did this summer is that I got a bow and now I am really super upper duper good at it. Thats one thing I did this summer that was really cool and fun.

  2. One thing i did this summer was go to explorations! It was a really fun experience, but not as fun as being here at Kamehameha Schools!

  3. Hi Mrs. Alamida! I’m so excited to start sixth grade! One fun thing I did this summer was stay at Koolina with my cousins. We swam a lot and ate of shave ice. Looking forward to having math with you! 🙂

  4. This summer I had my birthday and I went to the beach for Fourth of July. Also, we went to the carnival by the stadium.

  5. One fun thing I did over the summer was go to summer school. I got to take a performing arts class and a robotics class.

  6. When I went surfing I was making like I was better than my sister when I was riding a wave passed her then I wiped out . They were laughing at me my dad, and sister. It was a fail.

  7. This summer, I went to the beach with my brother’s baseball team. We went fishing and caught some really cool fish! Coach Ron caught a pufferfish, my dad almost caught an eel, and us kids caught a sea slug and a sea cucumber! I even caught a baby hermit crab. We had a hard time releasing the pufferfish because it blew up in the net. It was so funny because when we finally got it out of the net, it swam really slowly because it’s fins were smaller then its body. We also kept the slug and named it Sammy the sea slug! I loved the part when the tide was low and I got to collect pipipi. Another thing that was really fun, was when the girls and I dug a “house” in the sand. We buried each other and had loads of fun. That was a really fun day, and I hope that we could go to the beach again soon! 🙂

  8. The best day of summer I had was August 4th, 2013. We spent the whole day at Tracks beach, right across the Kahe power plant. It was my cousin colby’s 11th birthday. We went swiming and boogie boarding. Colby stepped on vana and some got stuck in his foot but he didnt care. We had hamburgers and hotdogs for lunch We were having so much fun we didnt want to eat but our parents made us. It was a great day.

  9. Hi Mrs Alamida so glad that you have this website. one fun thing i did over the summer was to cut loose and just sit back and enjoy the summer. i got to go to the water park and it was so funny because my cousin Lucas told me “DON’T MOVE THERE IS A BEE ON YOUR FACE” and I felt it crawl and me then he smacked it of and smashed it on the floor with his thumb. That that is super brave cause I am so scared of bees and I am a year older then him. then a man put his foot on it and started crying he was a tourist.

  10. Hi Mrs. Alamida!

    One fun thing i did this summer was, I went to Camp Timberline! It was for my summer fun, and we did fun activities, ‘smores, camp fire, pranks, and more! It was super fun. Ok bye! See you in school!!
