OCTOBER
Today was tail-waggingly good as I got to visit ‘Little City’ in the hall with two of my best friends, Teddy and Godwin. We played in the shop but mostly in the vets, of course! Godwin checked my heartbeat and, thank goodness, it was beating well. I hope that all of you who visited had fun. Next time you see me around school, please tell me what you want to be when you grow up. Have a great half-term everyone.
Wow, did you see how well our runners did in the cross country? They were fantastic, I love a run in the park but not so sure how well I would do in a competition. Well done them.
I am getting used to life at Holly Park and everyone is getting to know me. Last week we had some owls come to visit us. Apparently they could sense that I was in Mrs Pelham’s office!
I am quite a relaxed and sleepy dog. I prefer to stay in my bed rather than walk around the playground and chase after tennis balls but I think Mrs Puzey has a plan to get me into action more!
It has been a bit quieter in school as Y5 and Y6 have been on their residential trips. I heard they had a fabulous time.
I am feeling very settled at Holly Park now. The Headteacher’s chair is very comfortable. Do you think it suits me?
SEPTEMBER
I had a really fun time in The Enchanted Forest yesterday with some of the Year 6 librarians. We found some amazing books that feature…dogs. There is a non-fiction book called ‘A World of Dogs’ and it is full of fun facts about … you guessed it … dogs! If you read it will you please tell me and Ms Sampson what you learn? There are also lots of Dogman books – they are very funny. If you find any other dog-themed books in the library, please let me know. Have a wag-some week,
Last week was tail-waggingly good! I got to spend lots of time with Mrs Puzey and so many of you took me for walks – thank you.
On Friday it was a little boring as none of you were here. However – I got to spend time in the Enchanted Forest. Lots of amazing new books arrived and I helped Mrs Hurry, Mrs Needham and Vi put them on the shelves!
Today you have made me feel very special as it is my 9th birthday. Miss Michael bought me a birthday cake toy and I love it so much – it squeaks! Best of all was that I got to come to my first ever assembly and you all sang to me!
Thank you all so much – you are pawsitively the best!
Hello Holly Park-Pups,
Well, what a week I had, last week! I really enjoyed coming in to school and meeting so many of you. I went to every class in KS2 and lots of you came to stroke me. Stroking is good so please keep that up! Some children made me some pictures too, Ms Sampson has put them up on her classroom wall.
This week I will be in for three whole days. I will be spending some time in Miss Michael’s room, Mrs Pelham’s room and even with Mrs Puzey! I have already spent some time with some of you going for little walks.
Thank you all for welcoming me and making me feel part of the school already. I hope you all have a pawesome week.
My name is Maisy and I am very excited to be joining Holly Park in September. I have never been to school before but I hear that Holly Parkers are very kind and I cannot wait to make lots of new friends!
I am eight years old (I will be nine in September) and I am an English Cocker Spaniel. My favourite things are (in no particular order): eating, going for walks and being stroked.
I have my very own pet human called Ms Sampson (some of you may know her) and she will bring me to school with her – she’s even got me a special school uniform! Ms Sampson’s daughter (Lucy) will be bringing me in to school to start with to help introduce me to you. I’ll be spending time with Mrs Puzey, Mrs Pelham and even Miss Michael too!
I have heard all about your previous dog, Poppy, who I understand was very special to you all. I hope that I can follow in her paw-prints and also be a loyal, kind and caring Holly Barker.
See you soon, Maisy.
