ARC - Aspiration, Responsibility and Citizenship

Hilary Johnson —

Our focus for the last two weeks of the term is Citizenship - Taking Care of Others and will be based around the idea that Kindness is Catching. 

Students will be asked to consider the many ways that kindness can be shown to others, how simple it is to show kindness and how important it is to the recipient. From a simple greeting, to letting someone else go first, to standing up for someone who is bullied or including someone who is alone, there is always an opportunity for kindness and it costs us absolutely nothing.

Students and staff will be able to recognise other’s kind actions by awarding an “I caught you being kind” card, and these cards will go in the draw for some prizes at the end of Week 9.
