Kilohana School to Receive Two Moanalua Gardens Foundation Awards

Science fair proudly displays students’ award-winning work

Kilohana’s ongoing science project: E Malama I Ka La Ko Honua Ne No Na Hanauna Hou (Conserve our present-day resources for generations to come) focused on protecting Molokai’s reef in 2006. The students put together a variety of projects which explored everything from ideal soil conditions for native plant growth to stream cleaning to fencing to control grazing pack animals’ effect on erosion. Two grade six students- Sierra Yasso and Xrystina Bicoy(top Left)- acted as MC’s, and gave parents insight into their project, and what they learned from the experience.

The students and Ms Pineda will receive the award on Saturday, March 17 in Honolulu. Congratulations Kilohana for your rewarded hard work!
