No school Monday & Community Events

 Aloha Families! There is no school on Monday, February 8. Enjoy your 3 day weekend!


Last year we became a Blue Zone approved school! This included promoting healthy choices, like moving more at recess or walking to school, drinking water rather than sugary drinks, encouraging many healthy lifestyle & food choices at school and at home.  Blue Zone offers many free virtual workshops on healthy living like: Hypertension explained, forest bathing, curry rice and stir fry cooking demo, maintaining work-life balance and much more.

Saturday February 6 from 7pm – 8pm. Bishop museum provides stargazing on Zoom. $6. For non members and this is for elementary age kids and older. The Mars rover is set to land on Feb. 18 at 10:30 a.m. Hawaiʻi time. But the Bishop Museum’s astronomers tell us that’s not the only reason to look up. In this monthly virtual star party, the experts from the planetarium will walk sky gazers at all ages through finding Mars, the Winter Circle and when the Big Dipper will get back in our sights.   bishopmuseum.org/planetarium


Great Aloha Run 2021

Grab your running shoes and take off around the neighborhood for the virtual version of this race. You can still register for the 8.15-mile run or walk. It may seem like a daunting distance for runners with little legs (or those of us parents who have used the chilly weather as an excuse to sit on the couch) but in this new format, you have eight days to complete the task and earn that finishers medal. All ages encouraged to participate: cost is $60 for adults, $25 for kids and seniors and $35 for military. Log your miles from Feb. 8 – 15. Register and get more info at greataloharun.com
