Nurturing Technically Gifted Young Minds
At Afrikindness, we strongly believe that kindness can be taught. However, kindness cannot be developed in children through contemplation and discussion.
Afrikindness Focus Areas...
Kindness to Oneself
To create a well balanced emotional, social, intellectual and physical state for a child we must teach them self care and compassion. This is the backbone of their character and helps build emotional intelligence in them.
Kindness to Others
True kindness starts from within and blossoms to reveal itself in our interactions with others. We seek to build the child’s social intelligence and empathy. This stems from showing love, care and kindness to them in order to show them how they should be treated and in turn treat others.
Kindness to Environment
Children are motivated to become more involved in their communities through environmental education, which fosters their critical and creative thinking abilities. It aids children in comprehending the value of the environment and equips them with the fundamentals for leading sustainable and eco-friendly lives.
Kindness to Africa
Having a positive racial identity has been correlated with positive psychosocial, academic, and health outcomes for British African children and youths. connecting with one’s culture and background is a critical component in the development of an individual’s identity and self-esteem. Be the pride of Africa, wherever you are.
