Home Explorations Series ‘Ike Pono Hawai‘i Calendar Apply Contact Us Ho‘omāka‘ika‘i Ho‘olauna Kūlia I Ka Pono Ipukukui What is the Explorations Series? Ma ka hana ka ‘ike, “In doing, there is knowledge” In the summer of 1968, one Kamehameha Schools teacher engaged a small group of students to ho‘omāka‘ika‘i, “to be taken on a visit.” This was the inception of what became the Explorations program. Throughout the years, other programs such as Computer Camp and Kūlia I Ka Pono were created, engaging keiki who did not attend Kamehameha Schools. In 2007, four new programs were launched on Hawai‘i, Moloka‘i and Kaua‘i. These were called Ho‘olauna, “to introduce, to be friendly.” The sheer numbers of students attending illustrated the need for more, and by 2009, the Explorations Series had begun. Building upon the well-established “Explorations” name, the Series now encompasses three different one-week long summer boarding programs: Ho‘omāka‘ika‘i, Ho‘olauna and Kūlia I Ka Pono. Each is targeted at specific grade levels, with the experiences in each building upon the ‘ike (knowledge) gained in the program before it. For this reason, students are encouraged to participate in the series beginning with Ho‘omāka‘ika‘i, however they may enter at any level. In addition to our summer programs, the Explorations Series also includes the Ipukukui intercession program. Ipukukui is a week-long day program, designed to reinforce the experiences keiki gain during the summer. Ipukukui takes place during the DOE fall intercession in October, and spring break in March. Students who have completed any of our Explorations Series summer programs are automatically invited to attend the Ipukukui program in their home district.

. Matriculation He pūko‘a kani ‘āina, “A coral reef that grows into an island” With the creation of the Explorations Series, we are now able to see keiki through four years of programs. To support that effort, the Enrichment Department has created a Matriculation “pipeline”: Students who enroll in any of our summer programs will be automatically invited to attend the next. |

Home Explorations Series ‘Ike Pono Hawai‘i Calendar Apply Contact Us Ho‘omāka‘ika‘i Ho‘olauna Kūlia I Ka Pono Ipukukui What is Ho‘olauna? He ali‘i ka ‘āina, he kauwā ke kanaka, “The land is a chief, man is its servant” Ho‘olauna programs are one-week boarding programs that build upon the skills and knowledge introduced at Ho‘omāka‘ika‘i. Further, Ho‘olauna encourages students to affirm their Hawaiian cultural identity through a connection to the ‘āina where the program is held. Students will become aware of their immediate environment and the cultural and historical significance of various wahi pana, or noted areas. The curriculum and program are focused on the traditions of the area and reinforce the importance of place in the cultural identity of our students. Since each area is unique, the activities, lessons, and cultural traditions will differ from site to site. However, units of study and components will remain similar. The Enrichment Department currently sponsors Ho‘olauna programs in the following regions: Puna, Hawai‘i Kona, Hawai‘i Maui Island Moloka‘i Island Ko‘olaupoko, O‘ahu Kona, O‘ahu Wai‘anae, O‘ahu Ko‘olauloa, O‘ahu Kaua‘i Island
