Empathy has been our theme in Pastoral care over the last two weeks. I have quite possibly bored the boys to death talking about this but I feel that is something very important that we should aim to entrench in our young men. We are using this to encourage the boys to think before they act and to try and understand how others may feel in certain situations.
We have talked about the importance of empathy and to try and show empathy to others. We have also encouraged the boys to put themselves in someone else’s shoes. This is certainly something that will be ongoing for us and your support here would be greatly appreciated. If you have to opportunity to sit and discuss this with your son, I would be very grateful.
