Monkton Primary School - Kara's Buddy Bench

Kara was a pupil of Monkton Primary School who sadly passed away before graduating on to Prestwick Academy last year.

A bench has been carved in her memory with squirrels, dolphins and swans, her favourite things. It’s a Buddy Bench, whenever anyone is sad or lonely they sit on it and someone has to go and sit with them!

The photographs show the unveiling of Kara's Buddy Bench by Kara's father, mother, and sister Erika with many of her classmates, and other pupils from Monkton Primary School.
