Today, P1-4 were very excited to welcome Ailsa Buchanan into school to talk us about her job as a Vet, especially given the number of aspiring vets we have in the school!🐾

Ailsa told us all about the skills and qualities she needed to become a vet. She explained that in order to be a vet,  you must have a kind and  caring personality and love animals! Which was great to hear for all our little animal lovers!😻

She brought with her some of her special vet equipment; stethoscope, thermometer etc. and explained how vets use them to help animals to feel better. Then, it was over to us to become vets, Ailsa brought with her some X-Rays from some attention needing animals and we had to work out what was wrong with the animals and why they needed help from the vet. We saw the X-Ray of a poorly pup who had swallowed a stone, some broken paws and a pregnant dog too!🐶🐱

A huge thank you to Ailsa from Academy Vets for taking the time to visit Primary 1-4. We absolutely loved hearing all about her job and the work she does to look after our furry friends! 🐮🐶🐱🐹🐰
