Letters and artwork should be photographed and emailed to your child’s class teacher. These will then be printed off, put in envelopes and sent.
Weekly Kindness Activity:
Ephesians 4:32 - Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.
Thank someone
Telling someone you’re grateful for being a listening ear, cooking you a meal or lending you their bike is bound to put a smile on their face. It shows you really care for their well-being and might be exactly what they need to hear to improve their self-worth. It’s great for their mental health and your own, as gratitude is proven to improve your mood.
Say thank you to someone you are grateful for , for all the things they have done for you.
