Superheroes lead the way at Kurunjang Primary School

When Renee Resilience faces tough times, she bounces back.

And when Erin Empathy chats with a friend who’s feeling down, she pops on her reflective glasses and looks into someone else’s mind to see how they feel.

The two superheroes are part of Kurunjang Primary School’s mission to teach its pupils about the school’s six values of respect – resilience, responsibility, empathy, excellence and effort – through six characters designed by pupils with the help of an artist.

Superheroes Rex Responsibility, Ebrah Effort, Ronaldo Respect, Erin Empathy, Renee Resilience and Elijah Excellence made their debut at a school assembly last week.
