National Smile Day - Friday 7th October 2022

Each year on the first Friday in October, World Smile Day devotes a day to smiles and spreading random acts of kindness.

If someone smiles at you, you’re bound to smile back.

A smile often expresses a feeling, encouragement to someone, or serves as a greeting.

To celebrate National Smile Day the pupils coloured smiley faces.
