This year we have Little Learner Buddies,  Dyslexia Buddies, Lego Buddies and Chill Out Buddies.

Little Learner Buddies support in the Primary 1 classes each week by playing games and other activities with the pupils.

Dyslexia Buddies are paired with younger pupils to support when a younger pupil is identified as being dyslexic. At an initial Buddy meeting suggestions can be made about things which may help in school. The Buddy will also be a familiar face to approach in the playground. During November 2018, our Buddies helped to lead a range of activities, including their Dyslexia presentation at our Friday assembly during Dyslexia Awareness week:

Lego Buddies help to support the weekly Lego Group sessions held at lunchtimes, by supporting trios of younger pupils working together to build Lego kits.

The Chill-Out Zone Buddies are involved in setting up and running a quiet zone in the playground on two lunchtimes each week. This will provide a quiet area with relaxing activities which pupils will be able to access on occasion.
