Playground Buddy training has begun!

Today, children from Key Stage 2 who applied to be a Playground Buddy started their training.
We have over 20 children who want to help other people, which is really fantastic.

The children started by learning how to greet each other politely and practiced with people they didn't know from other classes.  Then it was time to learn our special song:

We're the playground buddies
And we're here to help you play (yay)
With Shirley Warren caps on
To help you all the way (yay)

Our games are old and new (true)
We can help you (true)

We're the Shirley Warren buddies
here to help today (YAY!)

We are going to sing it to the school in our final presentation assembly.

Finally, the playground buddies also learnt a new game called "Riverbank"
then went out to introduce it to KS2.

They were so excited about it. I'm sure it will be just as exciting for Key Stage 1 next week.
