We have been learning about Dog safety and have had a visit from the Animal Control. We have also watched the Police Dogs in action on our school field to see what work they do. The children who go swimming have reported that they are enjoying the lessons and the non-swimmers have been very busy with their fitness circuit programme and Maori waiatas. At the moment we are getting ready for our exciting Amazing Adventure day here at Waiuku Primary with the highlight going to be the huge climbing wall. Or will it be the pancake cooking race!!!!
