Celebrate the life and legacy of Ke Aliʻi Bernice Pauahi Bishop on this day of her birth. As a K-12 kula, we will come together on this day in mele to honor and give thanks to the foresight she had in establishing the Kamehameha Schools. 

Due to capacity limitations, tickets are required to attend the in-person ceremony in Koaiʻa. Tickets are provided to senior ʻohana (two tickets per student), song leader ʻohana, invited guests, and to alumni from classes celebrating their 10th and 1st milestone since their graduation.
