At the beginning of this year our School Eco Council thought it would be a good idea to create Buddy Benches in our playgrounds. These benches would be for children who felt a bit left out or sad to sit at. The idea is that others in the playground may notice this and go over to the bench to encourage and include the child sitting there.
Our School Eco Council decided to run a Buddy Bench Poster design competition which produced some fantastic designs. Our Councillors got together and voted on the winning designs.
Using some of the money raised from the Bag2School recycling that the School Eco Council ran in November, we printed the poster designs onto proper outdoor signs. The School Eco Council went around all the playgrounds at decided on the best location for our new signs.
Mr Gault's P4 class took great delight in posing with our new signage.
