The Action

The team was keen to educate children about the problem and developed a teaching resource for use at primary level. A bake sale was organised in aid of the DSPCA, raising €220. The innovators invited a representative from the society to give a talk at the school and organised a hamper collection asking students to donate dog supplies for rescued dogs.

The team worked with teachers, staff members, students, and the DSPCA to progress their project. They raised awareness about the issue and informed students of their events through intercom announcements and specially designed posters.

The Impact

Thanks to the efforts of this creative and innovative team, students in their school are learning and talking about the prevention of dog abuse like never before.
