Jolene Marie Acting Principal How did you show integrity this week? Have you ever been in a situation where you’ve found it difficult to make a decision? Sometimes when there is a grey area decision- making can be tricky because it challenges what we believe in and we don’t know how to proceed. How would you deal with the following situations? You find out a close friend is stealing money. You have a mate who gets angry quickly and hurts others. Maybe you ask yourself some questions: How would I feel if it happened to me? How will my decision affect others? As a whanau talk about how someone with an integrity mindset would proceed in these situations.
