Have you picked up a Kindness Month bookmark from the library yet?
Don’t forget to come to the library and pick up a special bookmark for Kindness Month.

Colour the front and write a special message on the back. Hide it in a book on the library shelves as a present for a future reader.

 

Each (school) day this month our Quilchena community will be invited to focus on kind acts. They will be on the morning announcements and then posted outside the library. I will also post them here. We invite you to follow along at home.

Happy Kindness Month!

When we take care of this place, we take care of each other. Today, while you’re out at recess and lunch, or on your walk home, pick up a few pieces of litter and put them in the recycling or garbage. (and, obviously, don’t be a litter bug yourself!)

Happy Kindness Month! Here’s a quotation about kindness from Stephen Grellet:

“I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.”

What does it mean to be kind?

Think about the little things we can do to be kind to each other. Try to do a kind thing for someone every day this month. I bet you’ll make a lot of people happy…. and maybe feel a little happier yourself.
