The Aina in the Schools Program began with our Garden Party coordinated by Mr. Marsh. Kindergarten students will participate in the Butterfly Garden and Grade 2 students will participate in the Nutrition/Wellness Program with Ms. Jan Yap. Kumu Lino and students will care for our Hawaiian Garden.
Exciting events are forthcoming! Mr. Art Kimura, will be igniting enthusiasm for Science on September 11th for Grades 2-5! Spaces were limited and parents/guardians were required to pre-register on a First Come, First Served basis. Fifty-five registered and unfortunately the workshop is now closed.
Parent/Teacher Conference forms were sent home in this week's Thursday folder. A reminder to list your first, second and third choices. We will try our best to accommodate your choices. Conferences will be held for nine days in October. If you did not receive your form, please inform your child's teacher as soon as possible.
