“… The children loved talking about [ROE baby] Atlee’s development, and I noticed more and more students commenting, asking and answering questions as the programme progressed – even the shy ones. The children also seemed to be more empathetic and accepting of class members … One situation in particular was when a boy was brave and spoke up to say how much it hurt him that some of the classmates would sometimes tell him he was annoying. The children seemed surprised and sad to hear this, and I noticed they tried to be more accepting and caring towards him in later sessions.”
