We have been talking about how we look after pets. We know that different pets have different needs. 
We decided that we would be able to have a class goldfish as a pet because we know how to look after it. 

To be happy and healthy a goldfish needs:
A tank
A water filter and pump                                
Food
Clean water
Water conditioner
Plants
Gravel
Vet care if he gets sick
He needs lots of love from all of us.

Here we are helping to carefully place the gravel in the fish tank. Then we filled it up with water and popped in a decoration treasure chest and some plants for him to hide in. 
We did all this before we got our goldfish to make sure the water was ready for him. 
After a class vote, we named our new goldfish Goldie. 
He loves his new tank...and we love him too.
