“Sometimes kits just slide perfectly into a need within your class. This kit did that, it slid alongside aspects of student welfare and relationships that we were doing and augmented them.”
What people are saying.
Prosocial Behaviours
“Students are able to identify their own feelings and are starting to identify how others are feeling. They are showing empathy and kindness when others are hurt. I am seeing students stop their play, give hugs and helping injured students get sticky plasters or help from a teacher.”
Classroom Impact
“The children were able to look beyond themselves and began to think about how their words/actions impacted others. They became kinder to one another and began to share more.”
