The Ethics Book


This collection of children's quotes and parental observations makes fascinating (and heartwarming) reading!
The image below is of the first page, and illustrates a few of the benefits of Ethics education for children -

- Learning new ways to handle difficult situations, such as bullying.
- Increased confidence and expression for more reserved students



The PDF document can be accessed from the Primary Ethics Resources webpage, linked here with permission, or click on the cover image above.  The book was collated by parents and volunteer Ethics teachers at Crown Street Public School, and includes feedback from parents and students at each of the ten schools that participated in the Pilot program during Term 2, 2010.  Many of the findings by Dr Sue Knight in her Final report (button link in left sidebar) are echoed here in the words of the children and their parents.
