Moretown School Update, November 21, 2017

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL 


Moretown Captures Kindness

CaptureKindness is a 14-week challenge inviting us to look for kindness every day, everywhere. Following the weekly prompts, we join thousands in capturing and sharing moments of kindness between World Kindness Day, November 13th and Random Acts of Kindness Week, Feb 11-17th. When we choose to focus on it, we’ll see that kindness is everywhere.

Check out the display by the library.  Parents and other adults are welcome to fill out a "kindness heart" and add to our visual record of some of the acts of kindness that we have witnessed/experienced.
