24th annual Hawaii Children & Youth Day

IAS and Chaminade’s School of Nursing participated in the 24th annual Hawaii Children & Youth Day at the Capitol.

The School of Nursing offered free blood pressure monitoring and information.

The Ho’oulu Scholars helped kids and families see the amount sugar they consume in sweetened drinks. Kids read the nutrition facts label on the drink container to learn how much sugar the drink contained. Then they weighed the amount of sugar into a cup so they could see how much sugar they would consume. It was an eye opening experience for kids and parents.

"I Am A Scientist STEM" is a mobile outreach program that shares our labs beyond the Chaminade University campus. Our services are FREE to Hawaii DOE schools. IAS STEM is part of a broader initiative by the Division of Natural Sciences & Mathematics at Chaminade University to encourage science awareness and education in Hawaii's public schools.
