At DBIS, the Young Bud Awards in EYFS provide a playful and purposeful way for our youngest learners to explore new interests beyond the classroom and begin developing lifelong learning habits.
Through a range of age-appropriate activities often linked to movement, creativity, discovery, and simple challenges, children build confidence, curiosity, and independence in a supportive environment.
The programme also nurtures important social and emotional skills such as cooperation, sharing, communication, and perseverance, as children learn to take turns, try again, and celebrate effort. Above all, the Young Bud Awards recognise participation and personal growth, helping students feel proud of their achievements and connected to the wider DBIS community.
