Break time! Tal snoozing between sessions! Important for Tal’s wellbeing that he has plenty of time to be a dog; playing, running outside, chasing a ball, eating his lunch and catching up on some 💤💤💤 #wellbeingmatters The Dog Mentor

We loved spending the afternoon with Taliesin! He showed us his fabulous tricks, we learned how to be Tal ready & practised staying calm using our Tal breath.😁🐶 Taliesin Smith Nant Celyn Primary

Taliesin and his good friend who has brought him a special gift today! Diolch yn fawr fy ffrind! 🧡

Tal visited the Reception class today. We talked about how to be ‘Tal ready’ and how to act when he is in our classroom. We sang him a new song we have been learning and a Welsh song. We can’t wait for him to visit again! Taliesin Smith

We had an interesting morning when Taliesin, our School Dog, popped in for a visit. We learnt how Tal likes to be stroked and then rewarded his good behaviour with some delicious treats.

I enjoyed spending time with Tal today. I loved throwing his toy and telling him to drop it again. Nant Celyn Primary Taliesin Smith

Last week we had a very special visitor! Taliesin our School Dog joined us for a bit of problem solving in Maths! Tal taught us about using different methods, making it easier, perseverance and resilience! Taliesin Smith

We had the most AMAZING time with Jenny from The Dog Mentor who supported EIGHT staff to work with Taliesin across Nant Celyn. Tal is very excited to now be an accredited Dog Mentor with his own license ID and working dog coat!

It's been a privilege to be the Head of Millbrook Primary and to work with such wonderful children and caring staff. Taliesin and I will miss you all very much 🥰 Pob lwc a nadolig llawen! 🎄🎅 #TeamMillbrook

Great start to Tal's school day - his perfect day! Look at these two lovelies playing pass with the tennis ball. What a beautiful smile :) #SchoolDog #WellbeingMatters EAS Health, Wellbeing & Equity

After a full morning of play, chat & cwtches, Taliesin the School Dog is broken. He couldn't even be bothered to tell Ms Smith off for not organising the cushions. He can hear the littlies out playing & he doesn't even want to join them 😯😃😃 #SchoolDog #WellbeingMatters

Taliesin the School Dog is a big fan of this little boy who willtalk to Tal & throw a ball for him for as long as he can! Tal isn't sure why the boy thinks that 'stick' is appropriate for either of them though... the ball is here... see? #SchoolDog #WellbeingMatters EAS Health, Wellbeing & Equity

Nothing like the joy of playing ball with Taliesin the School Dog. After a very busy morning of such hard work Tal is snoring under Ms Smith's desk 💤💤💤 @MBSchoolDog #WellbeingMatters

TCS London Marathon Kidney Wales Taliesin the #SchoolDog said absolutely - it would be his pleasure 😀

@MBSchoolDog Kidney Wales Well done Tal😍

That ball just out of shot is what is important in the world, argues Taliesin the Millbrook School Dog.

Tal very much enjoyed taking part in the #MiniLondonMarathon today with Kidney Wales

He's very much a sheepdog though, so all those running children and adults were in desperate need of rounding up in Tal's humble opinion 🏃🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🐶 😆 #SchoolDog
