The annual VCOP random acts of kindness Christmas letter exchange for 2026 is closing soon for enrolments!

For those who don’t know what the RAKs Letter Exchange is, we open a registration form every year for all teachers to register for their classes.
I then collate the groups into approximately 24 so you can count down to Christmas or the last day of term.

Every class is assigned a number from 1-24, a blank advent colouring-in decoration, and a RAK (random act of kindness). Your class then writes a letter to each school in their group, decorates an advent piece, and attaches the RAK to the back.

Classes then post off their 23 envelopes, each containing a class letter, a decorated advent piece, and a RAK to complete by the first week of November.
Excitement fills the air when letters start arriving. Each day, your class opens a letter and completes a RAK

Last year, we completed over 40,000 RAKS across Australia and NZ in Term 4!
Keen to join us this year?

Due to requests, we are opening the Acts of Kindness Letter Exchange early for 2026 to allow more classes to participate.

Registrations open now until groups are full

If you haven't been involved in the letter exchange before, here is a little info.

Your class is assigned a group of 24.

You are emailed a class act of kindness to share and an class advent tag with assigned number.

Then, each student in your class writes a letter to another class on your list. They decorate a copy of your class advent tag and an act of kindness tag.
Their letter, advent tag and kindness tag is then posted to the class they wrote to.

You will post 23 letters and receive 23 in return from schools all over Australia. You can decide if you write more than this, but usually, we only write the one letter and have fun looking up all the different schools on your list to see where our letters are going and coming from.

To be involved, sign your class up here: https://forms.gle/Djv3FnJEYLXJijSR6
