Read a story to a young child (or two!).

• Read a story to a young child. This is a particularly enjoyable activity will provide untold joy to a young child (and they may even repay the favour one day).
• Make someone smile (the more people the better!) remember it takes half as many muscles to smile than it does to frown.

Today I read a story to Violet and Harriet…… well not really I read them a chapter of  ‘Morgen the Monday fairy’. It was fun and it made them smile.

Make someone smile……. You!

Stand up for someone!

• Stand up for something. If a friend was being bullied you could wait for someone else to do something. If your school wasn’t recycling, you could wait for the principal to do something. If the planet was heating up, you could wait for the government to do something. Don’t wait! Speak up. Change the world. Starting from now.

There is a group of girls at school who have a circle which if you come in it uninvited (and invited sometimes) they say something nasty. Personally, I have been called fat, gay, lesbian, bossy and ugly by these girls at different times. I have learnt to stay away from them.

My friend was having some trouble making friends and some girls were asking her  nasty questions.  I comforted her when the Deputy Principal was talking to her and some of her other friends. I didn’t really say much but I hope that was enough. She plays with me and my friends most of the time now and that makes her smile…… and me.
