Drac didn't come back.

After Assembly, we got the chimpanzee from Year 4. It was our turn to look after the chimp toy. The School Councillors had decided to adopt a chimpanzee from Chester Zoo. In the package from the Zoo there was asoft toy, a certificate and tickets to get 10% off at the Gift Shop and you could meet the keepers. There was a Thankyou card too.

Mrs Garratt started making a dragon head for our display. Some children wrote out our questions about dragons. Other children drew dragons.

In the morning we also received an email from Chris Harber in Japan. He teaches English to the children in Furutsuki Elementary School. He sent us some photographs of dragon dancers in Nagasaki during the Chinese New Year Celebrations there. There was also a link to a Japanese story called "Urashima Taro", which has a dragon in it.

Puppies

When puppies are born they are all white but they have pink noses.They are very small.
















You have to keep the mum with her puppies.The puppies have to be kept warm. Most puppies
when they're born are put in a box with their mum.When they come out of their mum's tummy
they need a soft surface to come out.Puppies can't bark so they make a squeaking noise.

When puppies are a bit older they don't drink their mum's milk they have to be weaned.They
need about two visits to the vet's until they are at least one.
