The children also created a class charter where they decided what they wanted and didn't want in their school day, which included, kind hands and feet, being honest, looking after one another. They drew around their hands as if to shake hands in agreement and this will be displayed in the classroom as a reminded that we are all important and special and need to be treated with respect and kindness.
