Aloha kākou!
We love Mondays! Whatʻs not to love when itʻs Moʻolelo Monday? Here is a link to a free download of “Nā Makana A Nā Iʻa” a wonderful story written by a Native Hawaiian keiki. Our girls love it, and weʻre sure your ʻohana will too!
Keep an eye out for our #OHANASTRONG series coming soon!
ALOHA! We have partnered with The Living Planet Aquarium to celebrate World Oceans Day in June! The event will be held on June 8-12. Please see the flyer for more information:
Some days, you are so grateful for the internet, and today, I am grateful for having come across this absolute gem. Enjoy!
Our very own Taran Chun and his ʻohana are off to Hawaiʻi, where he will be the Poʻo Kula of Kamehameha Schools, Kapālama campus. We know he will do a fantastic job of guiding the young members of our lāhui, and are excited for him and his amazing ʻohana. Please see the invitation information via this link:

I remember hearing about this film, ʻKameaʻ a while ago, and was fortunate enough to find it on Vimeo and share it with my daughters. Hereʻs hoping youʻll enjoy it too:
Additionally, there are films by Eddie and Myrna Kamae that are available for viewing for a short time, you can see them here:

Last month we shared some ways to chant your genealogy. This month, weʻre using that genealogy to help you write some moʻolelo, some memories and family stories, in the Hawaiian language! Join us for a fun time!
Aloha!
I came across this while doing some light research online and thought it would be interesting to share! Here is a link to some excerpts from Ke Aliʻi Pauahiʻs travels through Europe in 1875 and 1876:
