Each year our Prep and Year 5 students participate in our Buddy program. Each Prep student is paired with a Year 5 student as their "buddy". The program is designed to help our prep students develop relationships with older children, provides younger students with extra support and widens friendship circles across the school community. It is a fantastic opportunity for our year 5 students to develop and demonstrate their leadership skills.
The buddies meet regularly and participate in a range of relationship building activities, class lunches and they work collaboratively on learning tasks.
