Next week, 13th - 18th September, Week 9, is Social Justice Week. It focusses on the joys and struggles of our families. We will be focussing on this in our Religious Education lessons in Week 10. Our entrance display shows some of the things we can all do in Social Justice Week to make a positive contribution to our home, school and parish.
Here are some of the things we will share at Koutuitui next week.
Ø Be
Friendly
Ø Make
new students welcome in my class.
Ø Ask
others to join in a game.
Ø Invite
others to sit with you at lunchtime
Ø Be
helpful
Ø Ask
Mum and Dad how I can help out at home.
Ø Maybe
clean the living room or my room or help clean out the garage.
Ø Bring
in the wood.
Ø Set
or clear the table.
Ø Offer
to help my teacher (before she has to ask).
Ø Be
Encouraging
Ø Encourage
others when they are having a hard time.
Ø Encourage
my brothers, sisters and friends when they are doing something really well.
Tell them, “You’re really good at that.”
Ø Make
a card for Mum, Dad or a caregiver to say thank you for the things they do for
you.
Ø Be
Supportive
Ø Offer
to help look after younger children when I can see an adult needs a rest.

Involved in creating happy events. Help to organise a
birthday party in my family.
Ø Be
Faithful

Ø Be
Positive
Ø Prepare
a nice surprise for someone who is a bit sad. Maybe bake a cake or pick some
flowers.
Ø Be
Generous
Ø If
I have more toys than I need, I could check with my parents and give some away
to be donated to other children who need them more than I do.
Ø I
can put some money in the mission box.
Take Care and God Bless.
