Mālama Ola Minute: Simple habits for a healthy summer
Aloha Lā Kamehameha! Through the voices and hula of our haumāna, today we commemorate our namesake, Ka Mōʻī Kamehameha I, who united the Hawaiian islands under his rule in 1810. Here is a clip from this year's @kamehamehakapalama Song Contest Hōʻike. The 2026 Song Contest theme “Pauahi Nona Ka Lei,” honored Ke Aliʻi Pauahi, and this performance pays tribute to her great-grandfather, Kamehameha I, portrayed here by haumana Linkin Apana KSK'27. I mua e nā pōkiʻi! #LāKamehameha #KamehamehaDay #Paiʻea #ImuaKamehameha
The impact of a great kumu can reverberate for generations. For more than 40 years, Kumu Keʻala Kwan helped shape haumāna at Ke Kula ʻo Kamehameha Kapālama. As he reflects on his lifelong journey as an educator, hear his manaʻo on the lessons that matter most, and what our haumāna continue to teach us in return. Mahalo to all the kumu whose impact continues to strengthen our lāhui, and to those who help ensure Ke Aliʻi Pauahi’s legacy lives on. #nanaikekumu
Recently, 90 haumāna representing all three Ke Kula ʻo Kamehameha campuses gathered at @kamehamehahawaii for the third Leadership Speaker Series. Participants engaged with KS Trustees Crystal Rose KSK’75, Noelani Goodyear-Kaʻōpua KSK’92, Michelle Kaʻuhane KSK’86, and Elliot Mills, who shared experiences and lessons from their own ʻōiwi leadership journeys. Mahalo nui to Vaughn Vasconcellos KSK’71 for his vision and generous gift that makes this leadership forum possible! #imuakamehameha #oiwileaders
Each day, our kumu help create the strong kahua upon which our haumāna stand, grow, and begin to discover their purpose. As we near the close of this school year, join us in expressing our appreciation for our kumu. Guided by E Ola!, our kumu carry forward Ke Aliʻi Pauahi’s kauoha, nurturing, uplifting, and empowering the next generation of ʻŌiwi leaders. They create spaces where curiosity is sparked, where confidence takes root, and where haumāna are inspired to live with a strong sense of ea. E nā kumu, mahalo nui loa for your dedication, care, and ʻike you bring to this calling. Today and every day, we are grateful for the inspiration you offer and the difference you make in the lives of nā pua a Pauahi.��#kumuappreciation #nanaikekumu #teacherappreciation #teacherappreciationweek #teacher
