    Dog's Trust Visit

    30 January 2025 (by admin)

    KS1 were visited by Emily from the 'Dog's Trust' and learnt how to make sure we keep the dogs in our lives feeling happy, safe and comfortable.

    Emily introduced the children to Wilfred the dog and taught them lots of rhymes and songs about how to make sure the dogs that we know feel safe and comfortable. We understood that we must make sure our doggy friends have enough space and that there are times when they might not want us to touch them at all. The children learnt about 'snuggles' instead of cuddles and Peggy the toy dog demonstrated the different between these two actions. The children learnt a lot and we now know how to show kindness to the dogs in our lives in a safe and comfortable way.
