Our school visits offer education, support and fun
I cover school visits within South Derbyshire and the North West Leicestershire area. All new schools are required to attend a 45 minute consultation ahead of any booked service to determine your requirements and to discuss the types of animal-assisted activities we think would be beneficial.
- Assisting them with reading through encouraging them to read to Harry, either in one-to-one sessions or in small groups
- Supporting children experiencing behavioural difficulties at school through using Harry as a calming companion
- Providing educational workshops to discuss canine body language to help children understand how to interact with dogs safely
- A greater enjoyment in the school environment, improved attendance and concentration in class
- Improvement to behaviour, social interactions and emotional development,
- Developments to their learning needs, especially reading, observing and communicating
- Building confidence not only around dogs but other people, and increasing self-esteem
