Kindness matters at Monterey Hills Elementary School.

Students recently took part in the Great Kindness Challenge, one week devoted to being friendly, generous, and considerate.

Students were devoted to performing as many acts of kindness as possible as they repeated one kind act after another.

Quotes on kindness, along with video and songs with the same message were all part of the experience.

A school project called for donations that would go toward making sandwiches for the less unfortunate at Union Station Homeless Services in Pasadena.

The week ended with the entire student body gathering on the school playground to create a giant heart, showing their love and kindness to the world.

The Great Kindness Challenge, as outlined on the official website, is a grassroots movement that is making schools, communities, and the world a kinder and more compassionate place for all.

It has been said that three things in life are important: “The first is to be kind, the second is to be kind and the third is to be kind.” – Henry James
