Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL)
"Working with Animals"
VCAL presentations engage students with
real life animal cruelty cases and examples of the work of the RSPCA
shelter and inspectorate. We explain why the RSPCA needs to exist and
the role of volunteers in supporting a community based, animal welfare
organisation. Other topics include pathways for a career with animals
and the importance of work based skills such as communication and OH&S.
An RSPCA experience
supports the aims of the Personal Development Skills strand including
the development of civic responsibilty through volunteering and
working for the benefit of others. Pre and post visit Literacy and
Numeracy activities are available. |
RSPCA Victoria
would like to acknowledge the financial support of the Bureau of Animal
Welfare, Department of Primary Industry in the development of this program.
