School Pets Supporting Wellbeing

Our Wellbeing Team continues to welcome our school dog, Dobby, into the school several days each week. Recently, Sooty has also joined our school pet team, further enhancing the positive impact these special companions have on our school community.

The presence of our school pets brings joy, comfort, and many smiles to both students and staff. They provide valuable support in promoting student wellbeing, helping students to regulate their emotions, reduce anxiety, and feel more connected and settled throughout the school day.

Our school pets enjoy spending time with students and staff, participating in wellbeing activities, and mingling within the school community. Their calm and friendly nature creates opportunities for positive interactions and supports a welcoming and inclusive school environment.

We are grateful for the many benefits our school pets bring and look forward to continuing this valuable wellbeing initiative.
