At Canterbury Creek Farm Preschool, ensuring the health and well-being of our animals is a top priority. Our dedicated team routinely monitors the condition of each animal to ensure they are healthy, happy, and thriving.

Routine Health Checks

Our animal care routine involves a thorough assessment of body condition and a careful examination for any signs of infection or other potential issues. This ongoing vigilance helps us address any concerns promptly and keep our animals in optimal health. Regular health checks may include:

  • Body Condition Monitoring: Assessing weight and overall condition to ensure each animal is well-nourished and healthy.
  • Infection Detection: Looking for signs of illness or infection and taking appropriate measures to treat and prevent issues.
  • Preventive Care: Providing vaccinations, deworming, and other preventive treatments to maintain long-term health.

Learning Through Observation

One of the unique aspects of our animal care is involving our students in the process. Whenever possible, we invite children to observe and participate in the care of our animals. This hands-on experience allows them to learn about animal health and fosters a deeper connection with the creatures they interact with daily.

Engaging and Educational

Our approach to animal care is designed to be engaging and educational for everyone involved. Students have the opportunity to:

  • Observe Health Checks: Watch and learn as we perform routine checks and provide necessary treatments.
  • Ask Questions: Gain insights into animal care practices and the importance of maintaining good health.
  • Develop Empathy: Understand the responsibilities involved in caring for animals and develop a sense of empathy and respect for living beings.

A Fun and Rewarding Experience

Animal care at Canterbury Creek Farm Preschool is not just about maintaining health; it’s also about creating enjoyable and enriching experiences for our students. By integrating learning with hands-on animal care, we make the process both educational and fun.
