About this event
- 1 hour 45 minutes
It can be difficult to find professional learning and networks for anyone interested in the Therapy Dogs and Animal Assisted Education (AAE) in schools space so we are trying to bring educators and practioners together to create a space. In the absence of many networks to bring professionals together to connect, share and learn we are launching a series of events to do just that!
This event is an excellent opportunity for educators, practitioners, and enthusiasts to come together, meet connect and share valuable insights and experiences related to therapy dogs and animal assisted education in schools. Whether you are new to the space, curios and want to know more or a seasoned professional, come along and connect.
The Paw Pals team at MacKillop Family Services are excited to be able to host this event and provide a space for us to meet each other and share. We hope you can make it.
We have secured a space at our historic head offices in South Melbourne and are hope to see you there.
