UPDATE: In light of the school holidays the Be Kind to Animals Week 2015 competition deadline has been extended to 5PM AEST, 17 October 2015.
Be Kind to Animals Week invites your school to do one kind act for animals from 1 June to 17 October. The nationwide competition is about inspiring and empowering students to take positive action for animal welfare while having fun, building essential critical thinking skills, and understanding the value of empathy, responsibility and active citizenship in our communities.
All Australian primary and secondary schools are eligible to enter and submit a photo or image that demonstrates their kind deed. Teachers can register their class, year level, a student team or the entire school to enter.
How it works
- Choose a project that demonstrates kindness towards animals or raises awareness about animal issues at your school
- Take a video or image of your project in action
- Submit your entry for your chance to WIN!
Be Kind to Animals Week falls within the last week of school holidays and the first week of Term 4. But you can choose to do your project anytime from now until 17 October.
Participation is easy
Register your school to download your FREE Resource Kit. Choose your project, take a video or image of your great work and submit your entry at www.thinkkind.org/enter before 17 October 2015, 5PM AEST.
Every project idea is welcome. You can even do a free lesson plan from www.thinkkind.org.au in your classroom and submit photos of student work. No activity which helps animals is too big or too small. Good luck!
