\"\"<\/a>Year 5\/6 had the great pleasure of spending some time with Kindergarten one Thursday afternoon and what an afternoon! Each Year 5\/6 pupil \u2018buddied\u2019 up with a Kindergarten child and they then moved around a round-robin of activities. The children went from solving jigsaws to reading together to creating beautiful butterflies! It was a great learning experience for both age-groups.\u00a0 Year 5\/6 are always eager to spend some time with the younger children, they are a caring and thoughtful group and they don\u2019t often see the Kindergarten with break and lunch timetables differing. This was a fantastic opportunity for the Year 5\/6 children to not only practise patience and listening skills, but also to hone their teaching skills and perhaps most importantly make new friends! It was so interesting to see the interaction between each partnership and how positively the younger children responded to their older peers. It also took the Year5\/6 back to their days in Kindergarten and lots of fond memories for all. We went away with big smiles and a keen interest from all the Year5\/6 to return\u2026 and soon!<\/p>\n
