Oakfield Academy will have a new four-legged addition when the students go back in September.
The academy reports, “This beautiful chocolate labrador named ‘Acorn” is the newest recruit at the academy and will be based in headteacher Miss Wilkes’ office.
“We hope the little dog will be seen regularly around the site, as Acorn is looking forward to being a listening dog at reading time. Oakfield is also certain that she will be able to help some pupils with their anxiety issues.
“She cannot wait until she can welcome all of the pupils back in September.”
