We know how important it is to look after each other and if you visit us you will often see the older children supporting our younger ones. Guiding them and looking out for them. Our older children are great role models for our younger children and when they are together both old and young learn from one another. Year 6 Buddies Reading together with Year 1s, helping them with their phonics. Every Reception child is given a Year 6 Buddy at the beginning of the Year. They spend time together at different events such as the older children supporting the younger ones during mass. Year 6 and Reception Class also come together for the Buddy Masses, where our Year 6 children support the Reception Class children to enjoy coming together to celebrate mass.
