Outstanding Keiki:
St. Catherine's Puppet Show

Holly Walker’s fourth grade St. Catherine’s School class preformed two puppet shows, "Doggone Safe" and "Think Before Getting a Pet" to their parents and siblings on May 15, 2008. The performance was enjoyed by everyone who shared in the afternoon event. Thank you to Mrs. Walker and her students for their hard work and generosity.

Critter Camp


This fun and instructive two session program uses classroom activities, individual group projects, arts and crafts, guest speakers and creative projects to teach children about care and their humane responsibilities towards animals. A large part of the daily curriculum will include hands on interaction of the Humane Society shelter animals, particularly daily training of our shelter dogs and socializing our cats. We will explore various ways animals communicate and behave both in the wild and in our homes. Studies will include how our daily actions can impact our fragile island.

The enrollment for Critter camp is only $150.00 per child with full and partial scholarships available. Space is limited and will come on a first come, first served basis. Check the calendar of events to see when the next class starts, fill out the registration form and come join in on the fun!

Tours and Presentations


Kauai Humane Society's Humane Education Department is constantly creating new educational programs utilizing hands-on demonstrations, lectures, and other activities to inspire and encourage students' awareness regarding animal welfare issues. The focus is on compassion, responsibility, respect, overpopulation, safety, and careers with animals.

Presentations can easily be incorporated into current curriculum and are specifically designed to accommodate the Hawaii Content and Performance Standards for career and life skills, math, science, language arts social studies, and fine arts.

To ensure participation of your program or event, please schedule early. Once your reservation has been processed, you will receive written confirmation.
