AST Kindness Scavenger Hunt
We embarked on a heartwarming adventure yesterday with the kindness scavenger hunt and a delightful walk to school from the park! Our community came together to spread positivity and make a difference, one act of kindness at a time. Thank you to those who joined us in this joyous journey as we discovered the magic of simple gestures and connecting with our neighbours. Together we created a ripple effect of kindness that brightens not only our day but the entire community!
