Kindness Counts 2024
-
In your school!
Celebrate World Kindness Day with us on 13th November 2024!
Whether it is a kind word, a warm hug, or joining like-minded people in a movement for change, children want something that is empowering, positive and uplifting, that shows them simple ways in which they can make a difference.
That’s where Kindness Counts comes in!
We want to teach pupils how little acts of kindness in the community make a big difference and we'd love your school to be involved!
