THE BUDDY BENCH
Earlier this year, “Buddy Bench” signs were installed on the kindergarten - 5th-grade playground at Liberty Christian School. When children sit on these benches, it signals to others that they’re looking for a buddy to play with. Third graders Brooks Lepschy, Cade Lewis, and Josiah Sanchez got the idea after seeing a Buddy Bench at a local park and thought it’d be the perfect addition to their school playground. What cuties! photo courtesy of Liberty Christian School social media page
