Hide AdHeadteacher Laura Suffield said: “Paddington took all the attention in his stride and even felt at home enough to take a nap.”
The dog will now become a part of the Read2Dogs programme, run by Pets as Therapy. This programme encourages reading in a relaxed atmosphere.
Mrs Suffield added: “The children are very much looking forward to having the chance to read to Paddington and share their favourite books with him.”
