St Nicholas Church in Wales Primary School in the Vale of Glamorgan received the title in the SuperKind Social Impact Schools Award 2026 after pupils collectively earned 1,805 badges during the 2025-26 academic year.
This achievement represents an average of 12 acts of kindness for each of the 145 pupils.
Claire Brookman, health and wellbeing lead and class teacher at St Nicholas CW Primary School, said: "Participating in and achieving the Social Impact Schools Award has been a source of great pride for our whole school community.
"The award has raised awareness of the importance of kindness, empathy and social action, encouraging pupils to make a difference at home, in school and within the wider community.
"This achievement reflects the values at the heart of our school and inspires us to continue working together to build a kinder, more inclusive and sustainable future."
Pupils took part in litter picking, planting to promote biodiversity, recycling, and reusing schemes, with some even taking part in beach clean-ups with their families.
The school also organised a uniform swap shop and a Christmas jumper exchange to reduce waste and support families.
Children raised funds for charities including Macmillan and Christian Aid.
The school holds the Rights Respecting Schools Award and runs a pupil-led Healthy Schools committee, which launched a daily kindness award.
Pupils also took part in anti-bullying workshops and contributed to a Climate Justice Art Gallery.
Keren Mitchell, co-founder of SuperKind, said: "The SuperKind Social Impact Schools Award is a brilliant opportunity to celebrate the many schools and pupils engaging with social action initiatives.
"Every school in this year’s award has done something special, but St Nicholas CW Primary School stands out.
"Congratulations to every pupil and member of staff."
