The Buses of Sunnydown Garage

Making new friends.

In this story, a new bus arrives at the Sunnydown Garage. He does not know anyone and tries to make friends with all the other buses as quickly as he can. However, not all the buses want to be his friend straight away - can you think why that might be?

It is always hard when you are new and do not have any friends. You may have moved house or joined a new school or class and need to try to fit in with everyone else. Some people find that very easy to do, and others find it harder to become part of a new group.

You must remember that it can also be hard for those already in the group and some may even feel that you will take away their friends.
