Our Special Yabby



Hello, we're sad to say we have got bad news. Our pet yabby died on Wednesday, on ANZAC day. He died because before he came to our class, he had a fight with another yabby. He had so many legs missing and other injuries he couldn't grow them all back.

We made a grave for Yabstar the orchard and we buried him. We stood in a line in front of his grave and we put a handful of mulch and we each said something nice about Yabstar. Some of us said our words out loud and some of us spoke in our heads.

This recess a whole bunch of people visited Yabstar's grave and put flowers and stuff there for him. We have decorated his grave and it looks fantastic and quite glamorous!! We felt a bit sad about it for a little while but now we're just glad that we had Yabstar as a class pet.




Poor Yabstar, he died too soon. Evie

Yabstar wasn't just any yabby, he was a special yabby. Sarah and Selvi

Yabstar is a pet that we're always going to remember. Chloe

We liked him and he was a good pet. Goldie

We still want him here but we just had to let him go and that's ok. Leila

Yabstar was a great yabby. Mitchell
