We are having an eventful week at school. On Monday, students enjoyed a performance by the Hawaii Opera Theatre of "The Pirates of Penzance." Yes, kids do enjoy opera :-) Halloween is always a really fun time for the students, and on Thursday evening, families gathered to carve pumpkins in the cafeteria. Yesterday, we had a Halloween parade with our youngest students participating, and today, the Parent Teacher Organization is holding a Fall Festival in the back of our school. On Monday evening, we have a Math Family Night with lots of fun activities focused on math facts fluency. School goes on concurrently with our construction project.

The Hawaii Opera Theatre always asks for a few students to participate in the performance. |

The students couldn't wait for the parade so they could show off their costumes! |

The steel beams are in place for the roof of our new classroom building. It was amazing to watch the process of lifting the heavy beams and placing them in the right position! |
|
Despite the rain and the mud, workers continue to dig the trenches for the pipes and the footings for the new library media/student center. |
|
Working on a project like this really takes teamwork - so many different jobs, each one equally important in the final outcome. |

I was returning to the office and saw this beautiful rainbow, a bridge between the old and the new buildings. |

The PTO had a Door Decorating Contest for the Fall Festival on November 1. Ms. Stachel's 3rd grade class took first place for their door. |
Aloha, Jan! I really enjoyed getting caught up with all the great things happening at Hale Kula! Mahalo for posting and sharing! :)
