A school girl let me know my rucksack was wide open.

A pair of hands holding either side of an open rucksack. Text overlaid reads “A school girl let me know my rucksack was wide open.”

“I was walking along at the same time all the local secondary children were walking to school. A school girl let me know my rucksack was wide open – I’m sure my water bottle and possessions must have looked like they might fall out. I was very grateful.”

We so often hear about the kindness of teenagers and we think it’s so important to challenge the popular narrative about them with these positive stories, so thanks Nicolette for sending this one in!

Remind yourself that humans are good with even more stories of kindness:
