Soi dog at school

SCAD has educational presentations for all age groups:

  • 5 and under
  • 6-8
  • 9-12
  • Seniors (13+)

“Teacher Tub” and his assistant “Miss Meow” are used to introduce the information to the younger age groups. We provide lesson plans appropriate for each age group, which the teacher may choose to use as preparation for the presentation. These include colouring sheets or a simple ‘question & answer’ format for younger children, or points for discussion amongst the older age groups.

Our presentations leave the door open for further participation between the students and SCAD, encourage empathy with the problems faced by stray cats and dogs and the communities in which they live, and explain how we are working towards alleviating the problems. We also discuss pet ownership and keeping safe around pet and stray animals. SCAD offers further presentations for a more in depth approach to the key issues if required. 'Muttketeer' and ‘Muttketeenie’ Certificates of Participation and Achievement are presented to the younger age-groups.
