A report on the "Buddies Group" from Publishing Team members Nicholas and Jason
Year 6 run the “Buddy Group” every lunchtime. Our dedicated Year 6 group are always helping the Kindergarten children to make new friends through this activity. They play many fun and active games such as foam ball bowling; going across stepping stones; a challenge of skipping; and much more. There are seven Year 6 children working with them each day, and 14 in the whole group. The Kindergarten children are laughing and smiling every day because these Year 6 children put so much effort into making lunchtime fun. These Kindergarten children rely on the Year 6’s to welcome them into Saint Paul’s.

π’ Important Update: SOCIAL MEDIA BAN for Under-16s Starting December 10, new rules will come into effect that prohibit under-16s from creating or keeping accounts on age-restricted social media platforms. π Why this change? Research shows that being logged into social media accounts can increase exposure to pressures and risks, such as upsetting or manipulative content, due to how platforms are designed. These changes aim to give young people more time to build digital literacy, impulse control, critical thinking and resilience before entering these online spaces. π§ While many platforms currently set 13 as the minimum age, this shift to 16 is about providing more time for healthy development in a digital world. π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦ With just over two months to go, now is a great time to start conversations at home. Talk with your child about what this change means, how they feel about it and how you can support them.27 Sep 2025
