LAHAINA — “Spanish for Keiki” will soon offer Spanish classes for children ages 1-10.

The fall session will run for eight weeks (from Sept. 30 to Dec. 2) with 5-8 students per class.

Each week focuses on a vocabulary theme using interactive and fun activities. “Children listen, speak, look, touch, sing and move in Spanish,” noted instructor Angela Leone, a bilingual speech-language pathologist.

Classes will be offered on Wednesdays at Calvary Chapel Westside at 75 Kupuohi St. in Lahaina. Choose the right program for your child: Tots (ages 1-3), Pre-K (3-5), Early Learners (5-8) or Language Club (8-10).
