Breaking News - Rare dragon spotted in classroom!

The rare Gaddesden Ridgeback dragon, known for its nocturnal habits and its preference for living near parks and gardens, has made an appearance at Great Gaddesden School. Children spotted the red dragon in their classroom on Friday afternoon and decided to learn more about it. They discovered that the Gaddesden Ridgeback's green eyes are good at seeing in the dark and that its strong wings mean it can fly up to 40mph. It also has bright gold claws, spikes and a bright gold tail. Despite its fiery breath, however, Gaddesden Ridgebacks are very friendly dragons which can be tamed and kept as household pets.

After learning all about Gaddesden Ridgeback dragons the children delivered an oral report to the headteacher, Miss Worsley, so she can remain properly informed of the new visitor who has made its way onto school grounds. To ensure the public are well informed about this species of dragon, the children also created information posters, with detailed pictures of the Gaddesden Ridgeback and labels containing all the important information.

Rest assured that the Reception children at Great Gaddesden School are well on their way to becoming dragon experts - look out for more reports on dragon species in the coming weeks.
