Today Primary 6 pupils were involved in Buddy Training to prepare them for being P1 Buddies next term. We discussed the role of a buddy and why they are important. Pupils completed a carousel of questions including:

• What qualities should a P7 buddy have?
• What language will you use to support your buddy?
• What activities would you like to do with your buddy over the year?
• How can the staff support you with your role as a buddy?

We then took part in a community builder which helped us consider the emotions P1s might feel when they start school, we found out who our buddy will be and finally we made our buddy a card.
