Acts of Kindness Week - Feb 11-17

In an effort to show our students how even the smallest acts of kindness can incite positive change, we have created a school wide challenge as part of National Acts of Kindness Week taking place this year from Sunday February 11 to Saturday February 17.

Although most of us already practice acts of kindness, we tend to do them unconsciously and attribute them to good manners. By mindfully recording our daily acts of kindness we become more aware of the impact we are having on others and also more aware of the opportunities we might be missing.

To help us be more mindful of our Acts of Kindness, we have created a Kindness Bingo Challenge with various AOKs that students can try to complete throughout the week. We encourage students to try and get a full line, an X, or even better, a full bingo blackout!

We will be handing out the Bingo sheets at the Kwoon, but have also included a link below in case you need to print another. Links to colouring pages and the “6 Kindness Concepts” can be found below as well.

Initiatives such as this are our most important. Kung Fu isn’t just about kicking and punching. It’s not just about what we do in class, but what we do and how we impact the world beyond the Kwoon walls. We know this concept as Wude (pronounced Woo-dah), which translates to martial morality. It embodies what we try to teach our students and what we try to practice in our everyday lives. Because Wude is such a key concept in our school’s intelligent curriculum, initiatives like this are also opportunities for our students to earn their green stripe.

We hope to see everyone participate!
