Barbara  and our  Wellbeing Space!

Well, it's been a busy week for our Therapy Dog Barbara. Lots of greetings at the start of the day, then visitors to the Wellbeing Space, listening to readers and children talking about learning and then some ‘drop in’s’ just to see what everyone is doing in class.

Barbara is having a great time, especially watching everyone playing nicely on the yard and giving her a break when she doesn’t have her jacket on. Next week and the week after Barbara will be staying home because Ms Julia is in meetings. This means there will be no reading sessions with her or Ms Julia for those students who do this, for the next two weeks.

Here are some pictures with Barbara checking out art and STEM activities for science week with the Grade 4 kids.

Have a great Bookweek and Barbara will see you all again in Week 7.
