b kinder school
b kinder school is an annual initiative that is inspired by kindness and empowered by students. This initiative is led by the school’s leadership team. This initiative encourages student leaders to cultivate essential relationship skills while collaborating and connecting with their teachers and peers. It helps teach leadership skills such as empathetic listening, problem solving, teamwork, and appreciation for diversity. The ultimate goal? To empower and inspire the student leadership teams to weave a tapestry of positivity, kindness, and compassion that blankets the entire school.
b kinder workbooks
The b kinder workbooks are unique, positive, tangible, interactive learning tools that have been designed with the help of teachers and psychologists to initiate questions and ask what it means to be kind. Through early intervention, these unique, positive programs and resources initiate discussions surrounding emotions that can be difficult for the young to communicate and empower children with a tool set of skills and strategies to help them develop an enriched sense of wellbeing, belonging and self-esteem. Our four b kinder workbooks are aimed at children in their pivotal years, 3yr - 13yrs. The associated units of work perfectly align with the PDHPE curriculum for Primary Schools incorporating the core values with an emphasis on kindness.
b kinder day
b kinder day is an annual worldwide day on June 22nd. The purpose of the day is to discuss kindness, empower and inspire children/people and remind us all that our actions do matter and that we each have the power to make a difference through kindness. To date, over 132,000 b kinder day cards full of kind messages have now been sent around the world.
b kinder storytime
b kinder storytime is an initiative that encourages children to write kindness stories for other children. These short stories can be about any topic as long as the underlying message is one of kindness. These stories are then read aloud by the b kinder foundation’s wonderful storyteller. They are filmed and made available on our YouTube channel. A kindness outcome is put to each story as well as the children’s names, age and location.
b kinder sunshine initiative
The b kinder sunshine initiative was launched in February 2021. The aim was to send “a little bit of Australian sunshine to children in the UK”. Unlike here in Australia, the primary school students in the UK went through lockdown during a long cold dark winter. Using the b kinder foundation’s b kinder greeting cards, students in Australia wrote kindness messages to students in the UK. The concept was to send a ray of sunshine, one kindness card at a time. Students discussed the meaning of empathy and were encouraged to consider what it is like to stand in someone else’s shoes. The students in the UK then wrote back to the students in Australia. We encourage schools to participate in this initiative which will spread kindness and instigate some wonderful friendships around the world.
