For our Inquiry this term our big questions are:
What do living things need to grow and change?
How can we help care for animals in need?
This week we had a visit from our local Veterinarian nurses Erin and Tara. They brought along their beautiful labrador Kirri. Erin and Tara told us how to care for a dog and how to be safe if you meet a dog without its owner.
We learnt that dogs need water, food, exercise and loving care.

Checking for healthy teeth! |
Who is the new vet ready for surgery? |
Checking Kirri's heart. |
Make yourself as small as you can if you meet a dog without its owner. |
Thank you Erin, Tara and Kirri! |
Prep K brainstormed some questions to ask the Vet nurses about what a Vet does.
Fantastic questions and wonderings Prep!
Dear Prep K
ReplyDeleteWhat great questions you have all brainstormed! I'm sure they helped you to find out lots of interesting information from Erin and Tara.
You were very lucky to have a visit for Kirri as well. Did Kirri have healthy teeth and a strong heart beat?
We are very lucky to have caring vets and nurses to help us to look after our pets.
I wonder how many children in Prep K have a pet?
Miss Y :)
Hi Preps,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful experience having the visit from Kirri and the Vet nurses. I wonder which pet is the favourite in PrepK. I predict cats will be the favourite.
Great learning Preps

Hello Miss Y,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment.
Yes Kirri did have healthy teeth and a stong heart beat. Kirri's owner Erin is a very responsible pet owner. She looks after Kirri very well.
Nine Preps have pets. They are cats, dogs, fish, rabbits and guinea pigs.
Have a happy day!
From Prep K
Hello Kirsty,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment!
We made a people graph about our pets and you were right! Your prediction about cats was correct. Five Preps have a cat for a pet (and Mrs Kennedy does too!)
Have a lovely day
From Prep K
Hi Prep K, How exciting seeing Kirri - how did she feel Hannah B when you gave her a pat? What a beautiful black doggie. Does your pussy cat feel as soft as Kirri? Great learning Prep K about how to look after your beautiful animals. Love Susan B.
