Creating a culture of kindness

Following on from our previous focus on Omoiyari – Compassionate Thinking in Action – we have seen out the term by turning our attention to the beautiful and powerful theme of Creating a Culture of Kindness.

At the heart of our school community is a desire to nurture an environment where every person feels seen, valued and cared for. Just as the new plants in our Rosary Garden and playground need sunlight, water and care to grow strong and healthy, so too does kindness need to be nurtured through consistent, thoughtful actions.

We encourage all students to recognise that kindness is not just a feeling, but something we actively choose to do. Whether it’s a smile, a helping hand, a kind word, or simply including someone who feels left out – these small gestures have the power to transform our school into a place where everyone feels they belong.

This culture of kindness extends beyond our students. We want every person who walks through our gates – staff, families, visitors – to experience a community grounded in love, respect and compassion. Together, we are planting the seeds of kindness. With care and intention, we will watch them grow into something truly beautiful.
