We would like to remind pupils of our work to date on the KiVa Anti-Bullying Programme.

Your teachers miss witnessing and hearing of your acts of kindness every day at school and especially miss placing your names on our school kindness tree. We have no doubt that, despite not being at school, you are all continuing to show kindness in your everyday actions.

We would love if you could share with us, either by photograph or artwork, one of your recent acts of kindness towards others. Or perhaps you would like to share an act of kindness by someone else towards you. The list of ideas below may help you to choose..Be as creative as you wish and feel free to add some text to your photo or art. We hope to feature some of your incredible acts of kindness on our school website.

Please send your KiVa Kindness Challenge pictures to denisemcmahon@stdaighs.com by June 12th.

We look forward to seeing the continued kindness of our St Daigh's pupils 🌈

Everyone stand up tall and proud
We are gonna stop bullying now
Everyone clap your hands and sing
