Welcome to the Kids’ Kindness Club!
Being kind is the best thing you can be. So we’ve created a Kindness Club just for kids. If you haven’t already, click below to join the club (it’s free!) and you will receive an email each month letting you know when new challenges and activities are available on this page!

KINDNESSCHALLENGE
There is an epic WORLD FIRST happening right now! The Great British Skip is here and it’s spreading kindness far and wide. Your Kindness Challenge this month is to take part!
We’d love you to submit stories of kindness to help light up The Great British Skip Kindness Map. Just download the activity sheet and write about a kind act you’ve done or that someone has done for you. You can chat about your stories as a class, and choose some to submit to the Kindness Map!
Once you’ve done that, let us know and you will go into the draw to win a £20 stationery or book voucher for your class. (You could also take part in your own sponsored skip!)
Deadline: Friday 18th September

KIND News
From children beading and litter-picking to spread kindness, to a WORLD FIRST mission, Ned brings you kind news from around the world.
We also LOVE hearing your kind news stories. Download our Kind News activity sheet to tell us your own kind news! Simply email a photo of it and your story could be featured on Kind News.
Kindness in Action
As you will know, there will be some new Year R/Reception children starting at your school very soon. Your kindness in action this month is to make one of them smile. Either by waving, saying hello, asking them a question, making them something, introducing yourself – anything at all!
This could make the biggest difference to their day.
(Feel free to send us an email to let us know how it went!)
SHOW AND TELL
Staff from the Arbours Primary Academy in Northampton did a sponsored fun run! They ran 5km to raise money for the School of Kindness. THANK YOU so much – we think you did amazingly!
Well done!
Book of the Month
The Crayons Go Back To School by Oliver Jeffers
After other adventures, the crayons are getting ready to go back to school. Each crayon has a subject they’re looking forward to the most. They’re also ready to meet new friends and let loose during their very favourite… art class.

KINDNESS POLL
Loading ...Self-Kindness tip of the month:
Feelings are visitors. Feelings can feel really big – but remember that you are not the whole feeling. The feeling is just visiting you for a short time, and then it will fade.
Writing your feelings down can be a good way to help them to make sense. It is always a good idea to chat to a trusted adult about how you feel, as sometimes it is good to have some support.
