Police helicopter and dog handlers visit our school!

On Monday 11th December we had some visitors to Leabank School. It was very noisy when the helicopter landed and took off from the school field. Phoenix the police dog was very cool and well-behaved. Thank-you to NZ police for coming to our school.

Musical Clackers

We made clackers using cardboard and metal bottle tops. They make a good noise except if you use too much sellotape.
