Pet Day 2012

The Junior Team had a wonderful pet day a week or so ago as a part of their Inquiry Topic on Pet Care and Animal Lifecycles.
Pets ranged from stuffed animal 'pets' to live roosters, guinea pigs, rabbits, tadpoles, cats, dogs etc. 
Prizes were given out for fun categories. Cookie won the Longest Tail award!  . . . and Nana's gorgeous 'Miss America' Bichon won the 'glamour' award and well deserved it, as you can see below!
We finished the afternoon with a grand parade.
Four teachers had their lovely placid dogs at school all day which was great for timid children.
It was fabulous to see once-shy students work their way up from a 'tentative pat' to a full-blown leash leading session alone on the field.  That was actually quite a highlight for me especially. LJ.
