PAWS of CNY was pleased to be invited to attend the Woodland Elementary School Learning Fair on Friday, March 9. Students were invited to come to the school from 5:30 – 7 p.m. with their parents and families to enjoy a variety of educational and creative activities. One of the evening’s educational activities allowed young students to practice reading their favorite storybooks allowed to PAWS of CNY volunteer therapy dogs and their human owners.
PAWS of CNY pet therapy volunteers Terri Krueger and her Cavalier Spaniel Gemma, Martina St. Leger and her Labrador/Hound Mix Dory, John Stepien and his Bernese Mountain Dog Stella, Peggy Byrne and her golden retriever Ellie, and Jessica Marabella and her Chocolate Labrador Blue all attended the event.
Throughout the evening, students were able to take turns reading stories to their dogs. From Green Eggs and Ham to lessons about dinosaurs, our dogs learned a lot, met new friends, and earned lots of belly rubs.
Thank you to the faculty and staff at Woodland Elementary School for Including PAWS of CNY in this educational and interactive event.
