involvement in the school events. Being a student councillor, she
takes great pride in organising various events such as Teachers Day

does her assignments neatly. When mistakes are made, she will redo
her work before submission. GOOD EXAMPLE!
Slide 17
Value: Integrity Janice has a sense of uprightness, honesty and
justice. Once her teacher had given her more marks than she
deserved, she informed the teacher. Though marks would be deducted,
she knew that was the right thing to do. Whenever Janice has made a
mistake and done wrong, she would own it up to the teacher before
being questioned. Her honesty sets a good example for the class.
GOOD EXAMPLE!
