Pets’ day out

Rupy’s International School celebrated Pets Day on April 25. ‘Furry and prickly friends’ served as an innovative way of educating children about different animals, their eating habits, their breed, how they should be taken care of and what they look like and at the same time they learn to love and respect these creatures. Altogether 80 pets took part in the programme.
