Kindness Chart
A kindness chart was created for every class. For every kind act that the pupils have done, the teachers will indicate with a sticker. The pupil with the most number of stickers from each class will be rewarded with a token.
Who is the kindest pupil?
This kindness chart serves as a reminder as well as encourages the pupils to practice and show kindness to their friends and teachers.

A girl from 3a showed kindness to animals. Her mother adopted a sick hamster and a unwanted rabbit. She nursed the hamster back to health and did everything she could to help it. As for the rabbit, she adopted it when she found it unwanted by the school gate D. The girl was compassionate to it and took pity on it.
So, remember, you can not only care for people in your own kind but even animals need your care and help to survive. You can even care for the environment. How? You should not litter.
