On Wednesday 4th May, all of the 1/2 classes were visited by a special four-legged friend. This beautiful dog was called Marli, and was accompanied by her owner, Eva. Eva and Marli came to Rosanna Primary School to teach the 1/2 students about responsible pet ownership and safety around dogs.
Firstly the students were shown a series of pictures where they had to identify how a family was being safe with their pets. After that they looked at dogs in different scenarios. Some were happy, some were angry and some were scared. A few students were chosen to perform a role play demonstrating what a person should do in each situation. Students were then introduced to different ways of identifying a dangerous dog, including a warning collar. Following this activity, students were engaged in a song and dance where they learnt about how to approach someone else’s dog. The final part of the session was very exciting and some students were invited to come up the front and meet Marli.
Overall, the experience was enjoyed by everyone!
