Kilgraston’s Junior School - Reception and Lower First virtual visit from the vet
In Kilgraston’s Junior School, Mrs Stewart’s Reception and Upper First are continuing with their ‘People Who Help Us’ class topic.
Recently this saw the pupils get a virtual visit from vet, Nicole, who works at Fair City Veterinary Group in Perth, and her dog, Walter.
Nicole gave a wonderful talk about her job. She showed the class some of the tools of the trade and used her ever patient dog to demonstrate bandaging a paw, listening for a heart beat and giving a vaccine. The children asked her an array of questions and thoroughly enjoyed the stories she told. They wrote about the talk in their diaries and here are a few of them.
Many of the people who help us most in the community are key workers, which is very topical at the moment. The children have each chosen one particular job to study and are busy making a poster which will show pictures and information about it. Many have relatives who are working in one of these fields which includes The Mountain Rescue, several nurses and care workers, farmers and of course, teachers.
