School Wellbeing Dog - Jack - Dogs Connect
Surfside is part of the Dogs Connect School Wellbeing Dog Program and we were excited to welcome Jack towards the end of 2022. This is a whole school wellbeing program which has involved the introduction of a wellbeing dog in our Surfside PS community. Jack will become a much loved and important member of our school community. The Dogs Connect program continue to support us in implementing this very gradually, thoroughly, and considerately. Please check the below link for extra information:
Jack has returned to school in 2023 and we will continue to work as a team to ensure Jack has a successful transition back to school. This is something that will continue to be very carefully introduced and Jack will be in at varying times within a week. We know that this work will have a really positive impact on many people in our community, and we acknowledge and respect that connection with Jack will be offered on a great variety of levels.
As Jack transitions bact to the school routine and as we continue to train him within a school environment it is important that everyone follows the expectations to ensure we look after Jack's wellbeing and safety.
Below are some videos that will help with some more information.
