The "Say 10 positive things in 10 days" Challenge




We challenge other schools to take on the friendCHIPS challenge.

Say 10 positive things in 10 days.

Watch our video:


There are lots of ways to be positive to other people -  how many can you think of? e.g.
  • giving compliments, 
  • thanking them ( e.g. for being caring, helping, including, positive, smiling), 
  • being appreciative of something you are doing together ("I really enjoyed playing with you.")
Please comment:
  • Tell us some of the positive things you said to people.
  • Tell us how you felt when someone said something positive to you. 

Create a Say Something Positive Wall

We have a whole wall where we thank other people for being caring, helping, including, positive or smiling. You could have one too!


Some examples:
"Thank you Emily. When I had no one to play with you included me."

"To Alex, you helped me draw a horse and made me laugh, thankyou!"

Create a Say something positive circle

Thanks to the Dover Grade 3 class for this suggestion. 

  • Sit in a circle so you are not next to special friends. 
  • One person starts. Turn to the person to your left and say something positive. Thank them for doing something that is Caring, Helping, Including, Positive or Smiling
  • The person who has been thanked then turns to the person on their left and says something positive. 
  • Continue moving clockwise around the circle and spread positiveness!
  • If you want to do it again, try going anti-clockwise.
