Big number maths problems were on the schedule for Year 3 yesterday when Tayto popped in to say hello. Tayto belongs to Ms Simpson and is used to being with school children as he was a school dog in a previous setting.
Substantial evidence supports a wide range of benefits of therapy dogs in schools linked to memory stimulation, problem-solving and game playing, as well as encouraging expression.
We will hopefully see a little more from Tayto over the coming term as he becomes a fully-fledged member of the Truro School Prep community. If you have any particular questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Ms Simpson or Mrs Issaka.
