The Asian people call it 'karma', the Middle Eastern people say 'it is the will of Allah', the French people accept that because 'c'est la vid', and the Spanish people are resigned to 'lo que será, será'. But, a person with character will Keep a New Year's Resolution. This Sunday, Mr. Tom will explain how children can develop their characters to keep resolutions. If children can keep resolutions, so can we!
