This week we will also be learning about Integrity. Please also discuss this
with your children at home as it is a very important attitude to live by.
The definition we will be using for Integrity is doing the right thing when nobody is
watching.
Here are some examples and non- examples to discuss with your children
When your mom is outside and you take a moment to jump on all the beds in the house because you know she wont catch
you that is not living with Integrity. When you pick up litter that blew out of your backpack onto the playground that's
Integrity.

Here is an advert that shows what it means to live with Integrity.
