Kindness is choosing to do something that helps others or yourself, motivated by genuine warm feelings. Kindness, or doing good, often means putting other people's needs before our own. It could be by giving up our seat on a bus to someone who might need it more, or offering to make a cup of tea for someone at work.

basically any and everything else about kindness and the importance of anti-bullying

Kindness encourages a strong sense of community and belonging while boosting students' self-esteem. This is a result of the “helper's high” that oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin give us after we help others. Kids feel good about themselves when they help others, and are more accepted by their peers.
