THINK!

This morning at our Monday assembly, Mrs Lund told us to THINK before we said anything. While for some people this may be a new experience, what Mrs Lund meant was that, before we said anything to another person, we should check that its; 

True   Helpful   Inspiring   Necessary   Kind

And then about 10 minutes after the assembly I had to put myself between two students who were going to start a serious physical altercation because one of them had chosen to say things to the other that he didn't like. While he may have believed they were true, they certainly weren't helpful, inspiring, necessary or kind - particularly as I had already told him to stop several times since I could see where the conversation was going to end up! 

All we need to do is THINK people...
