The fourth graders returned from their three-day huaka’i
(journey) to Hawai’i Island with a greater understanding of the geology and
history of the Islands.
During their travels, the students hiked all over the
volcano, searched through lava rocks, smelled the sulphur steam, tasted ohelo
barries, touched the ‘Ohi’a Lehua (flower from the Ohi’a tree) and hapuu fern
and enjoyed exploring nature, having roommates and swimming in the hotel pool!
They also learned from park rangers, listened to mo’olelo by
Kumu Hula Pohai Souza and Carol Young, prayed, chanted, sang, danced hula,
learned about Tsunami history, explored the petroglyph fields and the remains
of Pu’u Honua O Honaunau (place of refuge) and worked on their iPads to
document the trip.
Teacher Michelle Tuzon, '65 said, “This trip was one of the best
I’ve ever taken. It was immersion in history, culture and friendship and has
made an indelible impression on the students.”
