Therapy Dogs Visit Twin Spring Farm Day School

Therapy dogs visited the elementary students at Twin Spring Farm on Thursday. Students in Pre-First through 2nd grade took turns reading to the dogs, in addition to spending time petting the dogs, and learning about them from their owners.

Therapy dogs are well-behaved dogs that enjoy being around people. Their purpose is to bring happiness, comfort, and smiles.

Reading to the dogs provides a benefit to both the students and the dogs. The students spent an hour with the dogs, which provided a nice break from the regular routine of the school day.

Twin Spring Farm Day School in Ambler is an independent school that has been serving students for over 50 years. TSF takes pride in offering a traditional education in a unique setting and with a variety of enrichment opportunities at each level (preschool through Elementary) including field trips, community service, multiple specials that meet several times a week (i.e gym, music, art, Spanish, technology), and small-class sizes that meet the needs of every child.

Nursery and Transitional Kindergarten programs are available 5 days a week either half- or full-day. Pre-First (equivalent in year to public Kindergarten) is full-day and prepares students for First Grade. The Elementary grades prepare students to transition to public or private schools.
