On this episode of HIKI NŌ on PBS Hawaiʻi, watch a special collection of stories from the first round of shows this 2025 fall season.

These student-produced stories display ancient wisdom in action, from traditional Hawaiian mapping methods to wayfinding across the ocean by the stars and weather.

Other stories profile students who escape their comfort zones to perform on stage and others engaged in a school-to-work professional pipeline program.

The episode also includes a practical guide on how to prepare a go bag in case of an emergency.

Featured stories were produced by students at the following schools: Waiʻanae High School, Alvah Scott Elementary School, Roosevelt High School and James Campbell High School on Oʻahu, and Hawaiʻi Preparatory Academy, Waiākea High School and Kua o ka Lā New Century Public Charter School on Hawaiʻi Island.

The show is hosted by Kekoa Dung, a junior at Island Pacific Academy on Oʻahu.
