Anuenue School

My 2 children currently attend this kula (school) and I wouldn’t choose any other school to send my keikis. It is a great Hawaiian immersion school. They have island wide school bus systems. They have awesome school meals and a snack shop. They have a decent amount of parking (better than some other schools I’ve seen). They also have Keiki O Ka Aina on campus (day care facility). The school has their own lo’i which students and family are welcome to upkeep once a month. The school is located near a river. If you stand on the top of hill, it’s a beautiful site of Diamond Head. The campus is small which is good for me and for my keikis as everything is in short distance and takes a few seconds to get to the main office, hale Aina (cafeteria), library, and lua (bathrooms). The staff and Kumu (teachers) are all awesome!
However, I do hope that some day the school offers more educational huaka’i (field trips) and educational courses on ancient hawaiian activities/​lifestyle like lua, fishing, net throwing, Hokulei’a (learning how to make canoes), la’au lapa’au (traditional medicine), pa’i Ai (poi pounding), rock wall building, growing your own vegetables, ancient site visits, offerings, etc. the school offers summer school and tutoring courses throughout the year. Overall, it is an awesome school. I hope that one day the Hawaiian language is as fluent as English across Hawaii nei.
