Lunchtime fun with Hiro!

🎉🐾 Happy 5th Birthday to our school dog Hiro! 🐶💙 He had the best morning visiting the Year 6 children – they all sang him Happy Birthday while he tucked into his yummy doggy birthday cake! 🎂🐾 At lunchtime, he celebrated with games, especially his favourite... Find It! 🕵️‍♂️🐾 What a special day for our clever, loving pup. 🐶💖 Happy 5th, Hiro! 🎉🐾🥳

🐾 Another fantastic round of Hiro’s Confidence-Building Workshops! The children did an amazing job learning how to understand what dogs are telling us, how to approach them safely, and what to do in tricky or confrontational situations. They walked away with valuable life skills, and we’re so proud of how engaged, curious, and confident they were throughout. Well done, everyone! 🐶✨

Hiro & the children enjoyed the sunshine in the valley at lunchtime. 🐾☀️

Here are some of the children that have been working with Hiro - Nuture & wellbeing workshops 'Condidence building around dogs'. The children worked really hard in completing Ralph the therapy dog's sessions. Through education & gradual exposure, the children learnt how dogs behave & how to behave around dogs. They all enjoyed the sessions & all said they enjoyed learning all about dogs. Olivia said 'I'm really happy because I'm over my fear of big dogs'. Well done everyone.

Hiro enjoyed another pamper from the children at lunchtime! 🐾

Hiro enjoyed a nice brush in the crisp winter sun yesterday....more to the right! 🐾

Hiro was happy to join in the 'Children in Need' theme , so much so he waited outside Mr Churchill's office to show off his AFCB shirt 🍒⚽

Hiro loves helping Mrs Lloyd -Christie!

Hiro had fun celebrating his 4th birthday with the children down in the valley.

Hiro has been enjoying sitting in the shade down in the valley with the children.

Hiro is back to school! He is in the valley Tuesday lunchtime & listening to readers on Monday afternoons. Today Hiro enjoyed a pear picked from the tree in the valley.

Hiro has had a lovely day at school today. He chilled in the library listening to a story then played doggie snap in the valley. Such a lucky boy!

Yr 6 enjoyed time with Hiro in the valley 🥰
