Primary school sports team help elderly man move firewood
<p>A primary school rugby team from Cooma in New South Wales have performed a beautiful random act of kindness, helping an 81-year-old man shift a large pile of firewood.</p>
<p>At the time of writing, the photo, shared to Facebook by Cooma North Public School teacher Mrs Jamieson, has been shared by almost 14,000 people and received over 75,000 likes.</p>
<p>“When the boys went back to the bus after the game, the team and their parents noticed an 81-year-old gentleman trying to move his woodpile from the front of the house to the back. It was a rather large pile and would have taken the gentleman a long time,” Jamieson wrote in the Facebook post. “The boys and dads, without hesitation, decided to help the gentleman and completed the task in no time at all.</p>
<p>“It is gestures like this from our fantastic kids that make Cooma North such a great school. Boys, I am very proud of each and every one of you.”</p>
<p>Even better, the elderly man’s daughter commented on the post, thanking the boys for their “lovely” deed. “My parents were so grateful and can't stop talking about what a fabulous bunch of boys.”</p>
