As we begin another exciting day at PGL, our Word of the Day is Respect.

During this morning's worship, we reflected on the story of the Good Samaritan and discussed how respect is shown through our words, actions, and the way we treat others.

"Do to others as you would have them do to you." – Luke 6:31

Today, we will be encouraging the children to live out this value in all that they do – by listening carefully, supporting their peers, showing gratitude to staff and instructors, and taking pride in looking after their environment.

Respect helps us to build positive relationships, strengthens our community, and ensures that everyone feels valued, included, and respected.

We are looking forward to another fantastic day filled with fun, friendship, and opportunities to put our value of Respect into action!
