As part of our learning in Anti Bullying week Cygnus created a Kindness Tree. We each thought of a kind act that we had done for somebody else in the class and wrote kind words that either we had said or that others had said to us. These kind words included, “Are you alright?”, “You are great” “That’s lovely” and “Sorry”.
