Haleakalā Waldorf School, as remarkable as your child…
Lei Day Reflections…
Lei Day was a day filled with the scent of flowers, the smiles of children, beauty, ‘ohana (family), joy and pride. Lei Day is so special because it is a day of amazing pilina (connection). Every facet of our community comes together in anticipation, preparation and celebration. Children, faculty, staff, parents and our extended ‘ohana focus on creating an opportunity for our children to shine and connect with our special place, our island home, Hawai’i.
Within all the beauty and joyfulness, this day offers the children an inner experience individually and as a group working together. The feeling of connection to each other, to the Hawaiian culture, and to their sense of place blossoms within them. On the outside of this inner activity, we are all treated to a fabulous show and a day of warmth and community!
That the students feel the deep mana of what they are doing is clearly apparent. This day also always expresses the depth and beauty of our mission as a school, as well as our values of beauty, goodness, and truth. It’s just such a kakou thing. Kakou means all of us together including the speaker. Lei Day is the pinnacle of kakou. Look at the beauty we create together!
