Earlier this year in March 2020, students from San Fernando and Central Valley travelled to Hawaii as part of Learn4Life’s Experiential Learning program.
Students and staff chaperones, along with Pathways in Education, explored and learned about the history and significance of the second world war.
Every Pathways Trip begins with team building in some way. Before leaving for this trip the team spent a Wednesday night of bowling in Los Angeles!
on Thursday morning, students and staff briefly visited the Japanese American Museum in Los Angeles before heading to the airport. Next destination: Hawaii – Aloha!!
On Friday, the group headed to Pearl Harbor to tour the USS Arizona, Battleship Missouri, and USS Bowfin Memorials and Museums, learning and focusing on the aerial and sea attacks that occured on December 7, 1941.
on Sunday afternoon the group went shopping and enjoyed lunch at Aloha Stadium before heading to Sunset Beach on the North Shore of Oahu.
On Monday, the group spent all day at the Polynesian Cultural Center in Laie, finishing the day with Dinner and a show.
On Tuesday, the group visits the Tropic Lighting Museum and the Dole Plantation.
on Wednesday the group visits Pillbox Hike, a short, sometimes narrow trail features 2 military bunkers & a panoramic view of Lanikai Beach. Afterwards, they visit the Home of the Brave Museum.
on Thursday, the group visits the National Cemetery of the Pacific, a national cemetery located at Punchbowl Crater in Honolulu, Hawaii. It serves as a memorial to honor those men and women who served in the United States Armed Forces, and those who have given their lives in doing so.
