Nā Leo O Ka Honua, Endangered Species
We began this project with the students and teachers of Pomaikaʻi Elementary School on Maui in the fall of 2019. The songs were recorded on March 20, 2020, the day the world shut down from Covid. Weʻve gathered up these beautiful words, melodies and voices of the students and now offer it here!
Living Hawaiian Style

Hana Days Gone By (Aunty Puna's Song)
We are so happy to announce the launch of our song, Hana Days gone By (Aunty Puna's Son), written, sung and created by the 4th and 5th grade students, our Voices of the Earth Artists, of Hana Elementary School. The song was inspired by the their beloved Kupuna, Aunty Puna, who shared with them the stories and wisdom of her life growing up in the remote area of Hana, Maui. #TiLeafSlide
