NarellanLibrary have joined in partnership with Paws Pet Therapy to provide a program for children who may benefit from extra reading practice.
In this program the child comes into Narellan Library on a weekly basis and reads aloud to a trained therapy dog and their owner. Reading to a dog is fun! The dogs are trained to be a warm and friendly, judgement-free presence. Children can practice their comprehension and fluency without any fears of being judged.
At this stage they have a vacancy for Friday afternoon other afternoons may be available by negotiation
We have attached an initial contact form along with an information flyer for interested families.
There is also information on thier website http://www.library.camden.nsw.gov.au
