“We need to educate children on treating all animals with kindness and encourage them to be ambassadors by speaking to their families and community about caring for sentient beings,” said Kyle.
Janine thanked the principal, educators, learners and parents for their generosity in donating food as the SPCA had been short of wet food in particular.
Money was also collected which will be used by the school to purchase more tinned food to donate.
