IncludEd Pet
Meet Herb – Our IncludEd Pet
At IncludEd, we believe education is about so much more than lessons and targets – it’s about nurturing the whole child. That’s why we’re so excited to introduce Herb, our wonderful Jack Russell–Poodle crossbreed, and an important member of the IncludEd family!
A Friend to All
Herb is known for his gentle nature, intelligence, and loving personality. He adores being stroked, going on walks, and playing with his squeaky toys. He brings smiles wherever he goes!
The Power of Pets in Education
Having an animal in an educational setting offers so many proven benefits. Interaction with animals can:
Support emotional regulation and help reduce stress and anxiety
Encourage empathy, nurturing skills, and a sense of responsibility
Build confidence and communication through shared care and interaction
Even enhance learning engagement, as children develop their social and emotional understanding
Building Connection and Confidence
With family agreement, all learners will have the opportunity to spend time with Herb, socialise, and get to know him, always under the careful supervision of our trained staff.
We can’t wait to see the positive impact Herb will continue to have on our learners’ wellbeing, confidence, and happiness.
