Brookside Public School in Lucknow took to social media to spread their pride for two of their students; Jase and Kenneth, who received their Best Buddy awards today.
The boys they say represent what a kind and inclusive school can be and they are creating a world that every staff and students each day works to create.
The award is part of an in-school friendship club that focuses less on disability and more on creating friendships between everyone in the school.
Children learn about what it means to be a good friend and develop their listening and team work skills through activities and games.
