Goals for Living Well  Learning Well 

We are Valued, Respected and Cared For

The Term 4 theme for Living Well Learning Well at Sacred Heart is 'Living Well, Learning Well'.  Each week we unpack a Core Value to remind us of the actions and behaviours to uphold in reaching our goals. 

Week 7-8 Core Value is: ''Value the Contributions of Our Friends."

A classroom discussion  about the following:

  • How can we show kindness to each other? 
  • Is kindness contagious? 
  • How can we value our friends' contributions? 
  • Are we able to show our friends how much we value them? 

Students were each given a strip of paper. On the piece of paper they write something a friend has done for them. Students then stand in a circle. The teacher starts the first loop and each student links their piece of paper onto the next until a chain is formed. 

Students were asked questions: 

  • What is the significance of joining together our acts of kindness? 
  • How can we continue to add to our chains? 

Students then watch a youtube clip 'Kindness and Joy' reminding them that every person is capable of being kind and when we are all kind we can create great things.
