Wow, what an incredible day! We celebrated our 6th Global Be Well Day with Cognita Schools Group , and this year's theme—Giving—might just be our favourite yet. Our children learned the true value of giving their time, whether by litter-picking at the local beach and recreational ground or by helping clean and organize the local church. They created handmade gifts and crafts to spread joy, and made posies of flowers to sell in support of a local charity Sophie's Legacy . Year 6 children even wrote stories to share with younger children, highlighting different ways to give, such as kindness, respect, time, and advice. We are incredibly proud of all the children for their heartfelt participation and their deep understanding of what it means to give. 🌞🌱💚✨💜
