Educational Talks @ Schools & Childcare Centres
At Content Companions we’re passionate about promoting responsible pet care and encouraging a culture of appreciation, sensitivity and respect for animals. To help achieve this, we’ve developed an education programme for childcare and primary school children. It is our hope that by introducing children to a variety of pets in a safe, fun and controlled environment, that they may overcome fears and be more aware of the joy of caring for a pet. This programme is FREE of charge and we offer this to all the childcare and schools in our local area. We can also travel further at a very affordable rate so please inquire if you would like a Content Companions staff member to visit your school for this very interactive talk and activites about responsible pet ownership.
Classroom Visit (approx 1 hour per class group)
Our trained Content Companions staff will visit the school and bring with them a range of different pets. The pets will be introduced to the children and information given about their habits, habitats and life cycles. The children will have an opportunity to handle the pets and to observe their movement and behaviour. Worksheets, quizzes and word-searches can be provided to reinforce learning.
Classroom Pets
We provide advice and support to teachers who are considering keeping a classroom pet. We provide information on the suitability and benefits of different pets for the classroom and offer step-by-step guides to looking after your pet.
