Congratulations to Edie, our therapy dog, for successfully achieving her bronze award in the Dog Mentoring program! This achievement has brought delight to the students and staff at St Edmund’s Catholic Academy.
The Dog Mentoring program is a wonderful initiative that harnesses the power of the human-animal bond to educate and engage children with educational, emotional, and social needs. It’s fantastic to see how this program positively impacts the students.
Additionally, we would like to congratulate Mrs. Hazeldine, Ms. Buckle, and Mrs. Hogg for becoming silver award-trained dog mentor handlers. Their dedication and commitment to the program are truly commendable.
The efforts of Edie and the trained dog mentor handlers highlight the importance of animal-assisted therapy and its positive effects on individuals. Well done to everyone involved in this program!
