Another busy Friday!

This morning we had the chance to watch the arborist do his work.  The wind last week damaged our big tree and it had to come down.  It was pretty exciting!

This afternoon we were visited by Scruffy!  Scruffy is a dog who belongs to Oscar (in R11) and his family.  Scruffy did some tricks for us and he let everyone shake his paw - cool!  Oscar's dad, Gary, taught us how to be like a tree!  This is a good safety skill to have if a dog is chasing us.  It means we need to be very brave, stand tall and straight with our arms and hands in front of us.  The dog will take a sniff, and because we're not moving the dog will get bored and wander away.

I also want to show off some writing by Donte.  Donte can now write long stories independently.  Look how good he is at using capital letters, full stops and finger spaces too.  Ka pai, Donte!

I have a new trash pack.  It looks cool.  It turns into a monster.
