Grade 4 & 5 SEL Workshop - 26 March

Kindness. Something that isn’t necessarily practiced as much, nor as effectively, as it could be. We could all work a little more at. How lovely, then, to have an opportunity to workshop this with the Grade 4 & 5s on Wednesday, 26 March.

Inspired by clips from the movie ‘Pay it Forward’, and the Pixar animation “Boundin’”, the children reminded themselves and one another of the importance of kindness, not at face value, but of deep, true, selfless kindness.  They were reminded of the realm of possibility… and being an agent of change, and perhaps of being brave, too.

Above all, the children were reminded of the need to take our power back when faced with unkindness and to be strong in having our ‘No’ respected and understood.

A lovely, interactive workshop, our children certainly do have what it takes to champion what is right.
