For those who don't know Punana Leo O Maui is a Hawaiian language.immersion school on Maui starting with the very young among us. The parents are considered partners in learning and required to spend significant time in the class room with the children. It is an exceptional program.

From Ghana africa, I don't understand your language but am deeply touched by your culture, what a nice song keep it up

[@SovereignHawaii]

Basically the song says “hele au I ke kula mai Maui ma ka punana Leo o Maui.” Meaning “I come to hawaiian immersion school on Maui and to learn to ‘ōlelo Hawaii at school”. Our language WAS dead and is being brought back to life through people who choose to learn the language. Without the language there is death but with our language so near and dear to our heart, there is life. E ola mau mākou o ka lahui o Hawaii nei, ‘ano’i wau iā ‘oukou.

This beautiful presentation and family gathering represents the true meaning of Ohana and Aloha. I was born in the wrong country. Garry. Australian by birth. Hawaiian by choice. Aloha Nui.

[@rolyleavitt1538]

I have watched this beautiful video many times and every time it brings tears to my eyes. And knowing that in the fifties schools were not allowing us to learn Hawaiian. Be proud my people of your beautiful heritage! Aloha!

Watching our keiki sing in Hawaiian gives me great joy. Moreover, watching them sing at my grandpa Edward Bailey's house, Hale Ho'ike'ike, is so heartwarming. I loved this entire video.

[@lealavaamalo4836]

It's Amazing when children speak Hawaiian. Enjoy the singing ABSOLUTELY

[@pkicng210]

Keali'i Reichel once said in a PBS documentary:"If we lose our language, we lose our culture and our identity." In a lot of cultures, to learn the language of your ancestors is must.

I feel like you guys are my lost family. I’m an Alifuru tribe in Molo’uku Islands. People say, Moluccans are Melanesian. But I believe we are Melanesian+Polynesian. Moluccan people are just like Polynesian people. Our culture, language and traditions share a common value to the people in other Pacific Islanders as well, Polynesian to be exact.

[@williamfink8075]

The “Aina “of Hawaii belongs to the children, yet we have to do a better job of securing their future here on the islands. Far too often, the children leave to find education and learning on the mainland and only return to see their ohana when convenient. There are huge opportunities here in medicine and other careers. Stay in school, study hard, and come home....the islands need children who become adults and return to make their destiny whole again!
