Camp Outs

Two unofficial Early School camp outs are held at Malaekahana State Park every summer, one the first weekend in June and the other the first weekend in August. The camp outs are open to alumni so lots of older children are running around. Usually Saturday nights are potluck so bring a salad, starch, main dish, or dessert large enough to feed your family.

Days are spent at the beach and some brave campers adventure out to Goat Island (Mokuaula). 

BTW: Volunteers are needed to get camping permits at 6 a.m. at the DLNR one month prior.

 
Spring Celebration

Held in spring at the school, this may be your child's first stage performance. After the children sing songs and dance, a slide show follows. This is a very popular event for the children and parents. 

 
Conference Day

School is closed and parents are invited to meet one on one with their children's teachers.

 
The Big Chill

Usually 3 pm - 7 pm Saturday!

Held on a spring evening at the school, The Big Chill is our main fundraiser. For a flat adult admission fee children and adults enjoy Bubbies ice cream, games, crafts and music. There is a snack bar and bake sale. The silent auction is full of unique items created by the children and staff as well as high quality items donated by businesses, friends and parents of The Early School. 

 
Parent Work Days

Held twice per year on Saturday mornings, parents bring their hammers, drills, weedwhackers, etc., and help beautify the school. Projects include touch up painting, raking leaves and sanitizing toys. Lunch and drinks are provided.

 
Holiday Breakfast

Held before the winter break at the school, this Potluck breakfast is a great way to get to know other TES parents.

 
Feast Day

Held at the school around Thanksgiving time, this potluck, is feast for the kids!

 
Annual Meeting

Held in late October with a Halloween theme usually at the Aquarium, parents and children dress up and meet for a bento dinner followed by an informal board meeting where the new board members are welcomed and the retiring board members thanked.

 
Open House

Held in the fall, parents are invited to get to know their child's teachers, learn more about how they teach, and are able to ask questions.
