The @AcadHethersett Random Acts of Kindness group met today to write postcards to send to a local care home. They then planned this half term’s acts for school and home. They also just brightened my day with their joy and general loveliness. https://t.co/S7r0yQ4aw7

Lovely last day of 2021 with Yr7 and Yr8 @AcadHethersett. At the start of each lesson, we discussed how we could use social media to share positive messages as our random act of kindness. Lots of plans to tidy bedrooms at the end of the week. https://t.co/ael2MWD8oz

@AcadHethersett - December 15th 2021
