Our Animal Day sessions are a unique opportunity for young people to learn about responsible pet ownership in a fun, relaxed environment.
About this Event

Please note this session is aimed for young people aged 12-16 (secondary school students.) If the young person is in year 7, but has not had their 12th birthday, they are welcome to book onto the session.

Our three-hour Animal Experience sessions are a unique opportunity for young people aged 12-16 years old to attend the shelter during the school holidays to meet our animals and learn about responsible pet ownership and pet safety in a fun, relaxed environment.

During the session, the attendees will learn about how to safely interact with our pets and understand their behaviour, prepare animal enrichment items, as well as experiencing animal interactions with some of our rescue animals which includes dogs, cats, and small animals.

*Please note animals participating on our Animal interaction sessions are dependent on what suitable animals we have at the time of the session*

Please note whilst parents are not permitted to stay our sessions are inclusive and cater for all disabilities and additional requirements. Therefore if 1:1 support is required for attendance parents/ guardians are of course welcome to attend.
