Willoughby buddies program

Cromehurst school has been working with year 6 Willoughby Public School students for over 30 years by participating in an interactive learning program. Two students from Willoughby are paired with students from our junior classes at Cromehurst.

Activities such as painting, art and craft, movement over an obstacle course, climbing on the play equipment, bubble blowing and bike riding are just some of the activities set up and supervised collaboratively by Cromehurst and Willoughby and staff.

Each Willoughby buddy has a communication book in which they write to their Cromehurst buddy parents and carers outlining any activities undertaken each week so that families are kept informed. The Willoughby also use this book to ask questions about their buddy's likes and dislikes and other family members.

This wonderful program runs for the whole year and is of great benefit to all participants.
