Playground Buddies

Looking out for each other.

Playground Buddies is a really important role here at The Vale Primary Academy. What do our Playground Buddies do?

  • Treat everyone fairly
  • Be patient and kind
  • Be a good friend to everyone
  • Be a good listener
  • Use calm voices and talk to others with respect
  • Help others to develop good social skills
  • Look out for children who need help or are lonely
  • Tell an adult when there is a problem

Our Playground Buddies are there for everyone. They are warm and friendly and ensure everyone has a friend to turn to.

The Buddies have set up a buddy bench in the playground and have decided they would like to have a big book of games that will help children understand the rules of playing some games, and give ideas of games that can be played if children are not sure.
