Welcome to this Refugee Week 2026 activity exploring the theme of Courage. 

In this presentation, we will reflect on personal, physical and moral courage, and consider how small acts of kindness and bravery can make a positive difference in school and the wider local community. 

Through discussion, you will explore what it means to stand up for others, show compassion and act courageously in everyday life. There are also optional creative challenges to develop a dance routine or design a poster inspired by the theme. 

Looking to follow up these practical activities with a written task?
