Keiki gained knowledge about the Humpback Whale and then participated in a whale watch. Students learned observational skills by exploring surroundings in the kai region using binoculars and digital cameras. As a demonstration of Malama Honua and doing our part to protect the ocean environment, keiki participated in a beach clean-up.
