In this session, our Community Ambassadors listened to a story about Sandy. Sandy is a fictional character, a 10-year-old boy who experiences challenges at home, in his community and in school.
Our Ambassadors explored the concept of empathy through hearing Sandy’s Story. Empathy is when you are able to see things from somebody else’s perspective. By putting ourselves in others’ shoes and feeling what someone else is feeling, we can better understand how our choices impact on other people.
Ambassadors listened to Sandy’s story and afterwards explored ways that the story could be better for Sandy. To read Sandy’s Story for yourself please click the link:

The Ambassadors wanted to make some changes for Sandy
Have his own room, it’s not nice to have to share a room with your big brothers
His mum could take him to school so he feels safe
The older children are friendly and play with the younger children
Questions for adults: what can you do to make us feel safe and welcome in the community?
