#KindnessMatters #thoughtfulness @SLCEarlyLearn @SLCAttachment we have been finding out what kindness means this week. We have been using kind words and being considerate and helpful to each other. Our dolls were looked after as we practiced doing kind things for others.

Some learners in p1/2 engaged in a science provocation today during our play masterclass. They experimented with rolling various types of balls down ramps and exploring which went further and what other factors might increase the distance they rolled. @SLC_RAiSE
