After lots of planning with Lynsey, our Active Schools Coordinator, the Primary 6s organised Sports Day for the ECC. It was an afternoon of potted sports.
Primary 5 supported their buddy by taking them around all the potted sports and helping them at each activity. We then presented all our Buddies with a medal and a certificate that we had made.
All the ECC parents commented on our behaiour saying that we were excellent role models and that we were very patient and kind to our Buddies.
We had a great afternoon and went home very tired!
On Friday we took our Buddies outside and practised potted sports for Sports Day. The Primary 6s delivered the session and the Primary 5 s supported the ECC pupils and gave them encouragement. We had a great afternoon and we can’t wait for sports day on the 19th May.
This week we enjoyed choosing a book to read to our Buddies in the ECC. We then found a cosy space to share the book together.
Today we had our second come and play session with our buddies. We played outdoors, read stories, painted and had lots of fun getting to know each other.
We used the skills we learned at our Buddy training to help us.
