Let's start with the easiest things that you can do - send a message! Let them know what you have been up to. Make each other laugh with funny videos and photos. Ask how they are. Chat with them about all the things that you would do if you saw them in school!

Meet them half way
Find time for each other! Get together when you can outside of school time. Take photos and videos together, make lots of memories.
Remember, not every hang-out has to be an action-packed adventure. Sometimes the best times with your mates are the ones where you hang out and do nothing!
Call them, maybe
Unable to hang out in person? Do the next best thing and have a video call!
Arrange a video call when you are both free. Calls don’t need to be hours long, sometimes a quick 10-minute chat is all you need!
Better when you’re together
Friends make everything better and a big part of being a friend is being there for one another. Being there isn't always about how much time you spend with them or how often you see them. It's about showing that you care about them and that you are there to support them through the ups and downs. You can do this through messages and video calls, so don't let going to different schools get in the way of staying friends!
