Buddies
Students in Year 6 support Kindergarten students during their first year
of school by becoming their "Buddies". Activities occur regularly
in classrooms and informally in the playground. Kindergarten students
are placed in the same Peer Support Groups as their buddies. This program
helps senior students develop a sense of responsibility and teaches them
co-operation and tolerance. For Kindergarten students, the program provides
security and helps them settle into school.
Other classes throughout the school are also involved in the Buddy program.
Years K-2 buddy with 3-6 classes.
