STUDENT COUNCIL CORNER -+ -+ -+ -+ -+ -+ -+ -+<br />
Aloha from Cameron, Taylin, Mason and Kyra, the Student Council officers!<br />
What is Student Council? Student Council is a group of students from 3rd - 5th grade.<br />
We work together to make this school better or more fun. We also do altruistic activities for the<br />
school and people in need. Altruistic means doing something for someone without expecting<br />
anything in return.<br />
Trick-or- Treat for UNICEF is our first altruistic activity of the year. Trick-or- Treat for<br />
UNICEF is collecting donations on Halloween for children without fresh water and medicine<br />
around the world. We hope you choose to participate - be on the lookout for your orange<br />
collection boxes.<br />
In November we plan on doing Nu 'uanu "Thanks" Giving. It just costs a quarter to send<br />
messages of thanks to anybody at Nu'uanu <strong>School</strong>. The money collected will support our 3B's<br />
program at Nu'uanu <strong>School</strong>.<br />
Be sure to watch out for other upcoming events! If you have questions or suggestions for<br />
us please see us at recess.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
The Student Council Officers<br />
MAHALO!<br />
Flu Clinic - October 15 - Sally Moses, Health Aide<br />
Number of shots and sprays - 274. Many thanks to the coordinated efforts that made our flu clinic a<br />
success. Our consulting Public Health Nurse was amazed at how smoothly the morning went. We<br />
couldn't have pulled it off without everyone's help, from our library temporarily turning into a c1iniccustodians<br />
setting up and breaking down tables, teachers passing out and collecting forms, making sure<br />
students had I.D. 's, etc. A special mahalo to the Kamehameha Lions Club for providing 8 volunteers<br />
which made this year's clinic run even smoother.<br />
