Foundation Phase: Kindness Calendar

Through these times it is always good to be kind because “Everyone deserves kindness; it is essential for us to thrive” The Kindness School Foundation have created a free kindness calendar each week. 

The activities are designed with a focus on pupil and family wellbeing. 

Activities are structured into i) kind to me, ii) kind to others and iii) kind to the planet.

What the Kindness Calendar includes;

​

  • One activity per day

  • One theme per week

  • Links to relevant website

This week’s theme is: LOOKING AFTER OURSELVES
We will post a new calendar each week. 
Please let us know if you have done any of these tasks through PurpleMash blogs or Hwb.
