Bucket Loads of Kindness!
Team Piper's Recipe for Kindness and Behaviour Success...
In Team Piper, we embrace the powerful message of Have You Filled a Bucket Today? as a key part of our behaviour management strategy. By introducing the concept of “bucket filling,” we encourage students to think about how their actions impact others. Every kind word, thoughtful gesture, and positive action fills someone’s bucket, while unkind behaviours dip from it.
This approach works so well because it focuses on nurturing empathy, reinforcing the idea that everyone’s actions matter. Students not only learn to manage their own behaviour but also become more aware of how they can uplift and support their peers. It's a simple, yet effective way to create a positive, supportive environment where kindness is celebrated and everyone thrives.
You can read Have You Filled a Bucket Today? at home too! By talking about the bucket-filling concept with your child, you can reinforce these important lessons and help them apply kindness in their everyday lives. It’s a great way to continue building positive habits at home, creating a consistent message of kindness and empathy.
