Nik & Carl's group thought about perspective. How can we use our Character Strengths to show empathy to others? We think that this is made easier by putting ourselves in other people's shoes.
First, we watched the The True Story of the Three Little Pigs. Hearing this famous story from the wolf's perspective got us thinking! Maybe people who we think are 'bad' could just be misunderstood?
We discussed how we could use the Character Strength of Hope to help someone feeling down on themselves - as the wolf had been when everyone painted him as the bad guy.
Then we did a bus-stop style activity where we did the same with the strengths of Gratitude, Bravery, Humour and Kindness.
This was a great chance for our seniors to show some leadership, helping their Tautoru and Autahi whānau to share their thoughts.
To finish off, we completed our own hope jar inspired by the BFG. In this we put some of our hopes for the future.
