This week Moretown Elementary School participated in The Great Kindness Challenge. The purpose of the challenge is to highlight the importance of being kind to others, to provide ways to be kind and to notice kindness in others. Our participation in the challenge included a spirit week, with each day a different kindness-related theme:
In addition to the spirit themes, in wellness students learned about empathy, compassion and how they relate to being kind.

For suggestions on spreading kindness at home, check out the following: Comments are closed.
