WHY FISH?

Have been to your dentist recently?  If so you may well find that in the waiting room there is a fish tank.   It is there because research found that watching the fish in the tank had a calming effect, lowering anxiety and was fascinating to young children as they waited for their appointment time.

A prominent feature in Room 6 is our own fish tank.  In it there is are two angel fish that glide around the tank, about 12 guppies with flowing tails, a brown spotted algae eating pleco, a red tailed shark and an alligator with wide gaping jaws. 

Some children like to sit near the tank as they find it helps them to be calmer in class.
