Sea Eagles practice Random Acts of Kindness
We have been practicing random acts of kindness as February 17th was Random Acts of Kindness Day. Our students enjoyed doing kind and lovely things for people. They students also learned that Random Acts of Kindness day was started by Will Glennon in Denver in 1995, and then spread to New Zealand in 2004. Suggested ways to demonstrate acts of kindness are:
- Give a big hug
- Write a letter to someone
- Make a meal for someone
- Visit your grandparents
- Say something nice to someone.
The Sea Eagles wrote letters to our classmates as an example of a random act of kindness.

Sea Eagles do Research
For Multicultural Day, the Sea Eagles also did some research on St. Patrick, and this was what they found:
Once every year at the 17th of March in the Republic of Ireland they celebrate St Patrick’s Day. On St Patrick’s Day everyone gets to go to a parade
Everybody also wear green (national colors of Ireland). The first St Patrick’s day was in 1979 in Dublin. We have St Patrick’s Day because the day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. St Patrick’s Day often starts with a march and somebody saying la fheille pardaig sona duit which means happy Saint Patrick’s Day in Irish. On St Patrick’s Day they eat corned beef, cabbage and Irish pie.
