Year 5 Learns the Power of Small Acts of Kindness

Last term in Personal Development and Health (PDH) our Year 5 girls discussed self esteem and ways in which we can have positive self esteem. One way discussed was performing small acts of kindness. Some students in the Year group decided to write letters to residents of a retirement village/nursing home. The idea of the letters was to brighten the day of a resident who, due to COVID restrictions, may not be able to get out and about as much as they normally would or have contact with their own families. This week we received a number of replies that are very special. The girls that have received the replies are now busy writing back with other girls in the grade very motivated to start their own connection and act of kindness with a resident.
