To your family, to your community, to your country ? Why do we need to belong ? What is respect ? How do we show respect to others and have respect for ourselves ? Respecting our community and our environment. What can we do for others, for our community ? Rather than what can the community / country do for us ? At the end of the session a story is pieced together featuring the Further Adventures of The Good Citizen. The mistakes made and the lessons learnt. | ||||||||||||||
