Year 5 Buddies: Learning Through Kindness

13 August 2026

From time to time, we create special opportunities for our Foundation and upper Primary students to connect, learn and build relationships together.

Year 5 Buddies: Learning Through Kindness

During these sessions, our Year 5 students pair up with a Foundation buddy and provide a helping hand with activities such as cutting and pasting, solving a maths problem or reading a story together. While these practical tasks are valuable, it is the connection between our students that makes these moments truly special.

It is wonderful to see our Year 5 students embracing these opportunities to show kindness, patience and care simply by being there for their younger buddies. These small acts of support can make a big difference and help foster a strong sense of belonging across our Primary School.

A huge thank you to Ms Debbie for facilitating these meaningful connections and to our wonderful Year 5 students for being such caring role models!
