Whole School Monthly theme- SPHE YCDI Theme- Getting Along.
Healthy Habits of Mind for the Month – really important for good mental health of the school and for prevention of social issues.
Being Tolerant of others. (developing understanding and empathy; if a child feels someone is mean to them, or a child is different to them, it doesn’t mean they are a bad person. We encourage children to think that they need to find out more about the person and to respect differences, and to try and understand and respect other persons perspectives.)
- Playing by the rules– (develop knowledge and understanding of school rules and being fair. Encouraging children to follow the school rules and develop understanding that following rules will make children happier in school and enable them to be more successful.)
- Thinking first. (eg. Encouraging children to develop empathy and think before they act/think before they speak.)
