Compassion
Compassion
“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” Aesop .
Compassion is about ‘standing in someone else’s shoes’ when they are having a hard time. In other words,
trying to understand how they might be feeling and doing our best to try to help.
Talk together about:
• how we can show compassion and kindness to one another at home
• recognising when friends at school need us to listen and act with compassion
• stories in the news demonstrating how strangers show compassion in times of natural disasters
• how nations show compassion to other nations at times of disaster or need by sending money or volunteers to help.
There are Values Home Sheets from Imaginor. These are designed to complement the conversations we have in school and we trust will provide much food for thought and conversation.
Colossians 3 v12 ‘Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
