As part of our community service 
commitment at Punahou, all of the 
kindergarten classrooms visit the Ronald 
McDonald House throughout the school 
year. The Ronald McDonald House offers 
room and board for families whose 
children are very ill and need medical 
care here in Honolulu. They come from the 
outer islands and the South Pacific. 
Wilcox F started off the visitations with 
a Halloween theme. The children made 
pumpkins and a poster to decorate the 
house. In addition, we donated canned 
food. Hopefully the children are learning 
that "it is better to serve than to be 
served".

We started our journey walking from our 
classroom to the Ronald McDonald House.

Malia, our 
guide, is 
explaining the 
purpose of the 
Ronald McDonald 
House to the 
children.Then we 
had a tour of 
the facilities 
and decorated 
the house.

some of the 
children and 
parents.

and parents who joined us.

I think we all learned about helping 
others not as fortunate as us.
