Qualities of a good friend - Year 5

In school today, the children have discussed qualities of a good friend and why it is important for us to have friends. The children thought of lots of positive words to describe a great friend such as respect, caring, trust and fun. The children looked at some friendship issue scenarios and had to offer advice to the children in the scenarios. At the end of the session, the children created a pledge of how to be a better friend as we can always find a way to help our friendships grow. We hope that this session has reminded the children of positive friendship behaviours and will help with some of the issues that have occurred this week.
