Mahalo to all the families who volunteered, donated, attended, and supported Family Fun Night! Despite the rainy weather, it was a wonderful event filled with fun memories for our children.
We truly appreciate everyone’s time, creativity, and hard work in making the night such a success. We hope to see everyone again next year!
A: Family Fun Night is the cornerstone event at Nu‘uanu Elementary School. The event is hosted by Aikane O Nu‘uanu (Nu‘uanu Elementary schools’ parent-teacher organization) to bring the Nu‘uanu Elementary school community together and as a fundraiser to purchase items needed for the school. The night includes games, food, a silent auction, country store, talent show, and lots of fun activities for the entire family.
