! Kalama Dining hall was built in
1954 to house the kitchen for the
preparatory department. It was once
name Keʻelikōlani, but 10 years later the
name was passed to the new swimming
pool. The dining hall was built by
Walker-Moody construction and costed
$237,846 to build. The dining hall was
used to feed day students in the 7th and
8th grades, and fed borders in the
morning and night. The building has a
capacity of 640 persons.
!
In 1993 a renovation on Kalama
started. Architect Arthur Siu, was the
leader in the $2.4 million dollar project.
They renovated everything from the
equipment in the kitchen to the tile
floors. They also added a Unit office at
the Waikīkī end of the dining hall.
!
The dining hall was named after
Queen Kalama. Kalama means a torch
or light. She was married to
Kamehameha III. Kalama died on
September 20, 1870, and the dining
hall was named in her honor.

Kamehameha Schools wants to re-floor the
dining hall. Currently there is tile floor, but the
school wants to replace it with a higher quality
floor. If the dining hall is 124 feet by 72 feet,
and the new tiles are 1 square foot, how many
tiles do you need to re-floor the dining hall? If
each box has 25 tiles, how many boxes need to be
purchased to re-floor?
