Mentor Dog

Bonnie, our school mentor dog,  has enjoyed her first two weeks back in school after the summer holiday.  Bonnie has been coming into school for a year now and is a much loved member of our school community.  Research has shown that children working with a dog can promote healthy connections within the brain which can strengthen intellectual, physical, emotional and creative processes.      Bonnie visits the children in their classes, hears readers and loves story time!  The children enjoy taking her walks and spending some reward time with her.  Bonnie is looking forward to getting to know our new reception children better!
