January Family Nights

Posted On: Feb 01, 12

It was standing room only at the Sunset Beach Elementary School cafeteria during the January 6th Family Night screening of “Truck Farm”.  School families and the community enjoyed Q and A with the film makers, visiting a real life truck farm from Windward Nazarene Academy,  hands on activities from community organizations, raffle prizes, dinner from the Impossibles Pizza truck and ‘AINA In Schools bird’s nest salads. Check out the blog from the folks at “Truck Farm” and their Facebook page for more photos!

Over 200 people attended Keone’ula’s Elementary School’s 3R’s Family Night on January 18th. The evening included speakers from Blue Planet Foundation, Board of Water Supply, Hawaiian Electric Co., Schnitzer Steel and Kokua Hawaii Foundation. Students conducted tours and engaged the attendees in hands-on games and activities focused on waste reduction, recycling, and water and energy conservation,  including a “Who Can Hang Their Laundry on the Line the Fastest” game. Each person went home with a craft hand-made from recycled material and tips to reducing waste at home.
