Upcoming October MES PTO Events

Fall Break is starting soon, but check out all these upcoming MES PTO events happening this October:

FALL FUNDRAISERS

Thank you to all the families who made at donation with Foodland’s Give Aloha campaign. Students can turn in a copy of their receipt at the MES office or email them to fundraising@moanaluapto.org by October 8, to get credit for our Fundraising Contest.

Kala Kokua: Make sure to order your Kala Kokua products online by Monday, October 7. Pick-up will be on Saturday, October 19, from 9 AM – noon, in the MES Parking Lot.

Our goal for our Fall Fundraiser is to raise $15k, to help support our various MES PTO programs for our MES students. Prizes will be given to the top seller; and we will also have raffles when we hit our $5k, $10k, and $15k marks. Make sure to spread the word to your friends and family so they can help out too!

Habilitat Christmas Trees: Get into the Christmas Spirit and order your Christmas trees and decorations online until 10/31. Make sure to choose “Moanalua Elementary” so MES PTO can get a portion of the proceeds.

FUN FAIR

Packets went home with students before the break in anticipation of our Fun Fair on 11/22. Make sure to take a look as there is important information inside about pre-orders (including the commemorative Tshirts that are due on 10/16); as well as ways that you can help out. The Moanalua Fun Fair is a beloved MES tradition, open to both MES families and our community, and the largest MES PTO fundraiser of the year. We need all hands on deck to help make it a success.

GARDEN CLUB EVENT: 10/12, 9-11 AM

FALL FAMILY NIGHT: 10/29
