Showing respect and compassion.

This morning we have had a discussion on showing respect and compassion. We think as a school we need to MIB the ways we show we care about the wider community.

Here are some ideas we thought we could put into practise today:

  • If someone is not using right time, right place, right person thinking we could remind them.
  • Hold the door open for others
  • Push chairs in so no one trips over them
  • If someone teaches you a word in a different language, be sure that you know what it means before you use it and repeat it to make sure you are not hurting feelings.
  • Stop and check if people are hurt - get help from a year 6 leader or duty teacher.
  • Use your manners and say good morning or good evening or hello, please and thank you.
  • Use people's names.
  • Smile.
  • Let other people go first through doorways, move aside.
Let the caring begin! Our mission starts NOW! Room 13 can you MIB it? YES WE CAN!

  1. Room 13 , what great ideas you have posted. I can see that you know how important it is that we make sure that everything we do at Upper Harbour is underpinned by respect and compassion. All the behaviours you mentioned above help to make Upper Harbour Primary a special place to learn. Thank you!
