Absent Friends Board

Sadly we can’t invite cats, ponies or farm animals and some pets will be too nervous to come along.  However, you can still show them off by bringing in a photo to display on our ‘Absent Friends’ board.

Small Furry Animals, Feathered Friends and Exotics

There will be classes for small animals, including feathered friends and exotics.  These must be secured in their cages at all times, with sufficient food and water available.

Creative Classes

A 3D model of an animal – using any media

A painting or sketch of a pet or animal

 A homemade animal puppet

A funny photograph of a pet or animal
(this class is open to both pupils and teachers!)

Please refer to the Pet Show Entry Form for details of the rules of entry and safety information.
