Beginning the new year with reflection on Korineto I 16:14: “E hana ʻia ko ʻoukou mea a pau me ke aloha.” Let all that you do be done in love. 1 Corinthians 16:14 ⭐
Kamaliʻi have excellent memory and love to learn language. Practice one paukū paʻanaʻau with them for an entire month and see if they can remember it.
Paukū means verse. Paʻanaʻau is something that is held firmly in ones naʻau, such as important names, values or lessons. Our kūpuna used the term paukū paʻanaʻau to refer to memory verses that they themselves would memorize and that they would teach to their own kamaliʻi and moʻopuna. The hope in teaching paukū paʻanaʻau is that kamaliʻi would internalize values and virtues that would guide their decisions in tasks and experience while away from their trusted kūpuna and mākua.
🎵 Our keiki raise their voices to honor the life-giving power of wai.

A heartfelt expression of aloha for Princess Pauahi from our keiki. 💕
Keiki at Heʻeia Preschool Papa ʻOhe had the unique opportunity to decorate a gingerbread model of @iolanipalacehi on the last day of school for 2024. Mahalo to mom Kamealani Carvalho for sharing her baking talents with our keiki! This beautiful project allowed our keiki to work together, learn, and create lasting memories. When parents share their time, talents, and aloha, they help provide richer and more meaningful experiences for our keiki. And in this situation the outcome honored our history and was totally SWEET! 🍬 #imuakamehameha #kamehamehapreschools #heeia #iolanipalace #gingerbreadhouse
