When it comes to the art of training and looking after cats and dogs, the students at St Conleths Community College in Newbridge certainly have the know how.

The Post Leaving Cert (PLC) Animal Care class recently completed their Canine and Feline Handling and Restraining Workshop recently.

They received their training from Lily 4 Paws, an organisation that runs workshops with the aim of giving students a rounded view of pet ownership and animal welfare in Ireland. Chucky the dog came to the school on the day to be part of the training course.
