We are Collins and Briana and we are therapy pets. Although we live with Mrs McCafferty we come to school and spend time with identified children who need some emotional support. Mrs McCafferty is trained in dog therapy and only children who have explicit consent from parents/carers will come to us. We can help reduce stress, improve mood and even stimulate cognitive function but best of all we give great cuddles and love to play with our ball!

We are not allowed to run around the school and we only interact with one or two children at a time when it is appropriate. When we are in school we sleep in our wee beds in Mrs McCafferty's office.  

So that everyone is kept safe (including us) we have a Risk Assessment and you can request this from the school.
