Wellbeing Wednesday - Books on Kindness & Compassion

Wellbeing Wednesday
Books on Kindness
We are half way through anti-bullying week and enjoying focusing on kindness, compassion and friendship. The children are looking forward to taking part in drama workshops on Friday, as well as learning a school song about kindness that we will film and share at the end of the week.
The children always love to read stories about kindness and it is a great way to start a conversation and discuss the importance of compassion, tolerance and friendship. Help put your child in another person's shoes with these picture books that inspire compassion: whether that is towards animals, friends or people in very different situations to your own. Not only will you end up caring about them all, but you'll also feel grateful for the simple things you have and the people you love. So share these books as a family, and let's spread a little kindness in the world!
