What's up dog?

Nikau was employed as the official school dog of Te Uho o te Nikau Primary School in 2018 - before we opened in 2019. Nikau was named after the school and took on his new role after being released from the Guide Dog programme due to a medical condition. He works with over 400 children in his role, either providing reading assistance, emotional regulation support or teaching responsibility and empathy with the “Dog Squad”.
