Forest Field Trip at Niaulani November 15, 2011

Students from Pahoa Elementary will visit Niaulani Campus in Volcano Village on Hawai`i Island. The event will start with a presentation of the Artists and the Environment program sponsored by Recycle Hawai`i. The focus of the presentation will be on how the Native Hawaiian culture promoted sustainable practices.

The first part of the presentation will include storytelling, music and hula. The second half will be a demonstration of how Native Hawaiians used materials from the forest in the healing arts. Students will then go on a guided walk along the Nature Trail at Niaulani.
