Less stress, more pats!
October 2026
David and Bronix with Maria, Annie and Minnie Me at Campbelltown Library.
PAWS teams visited 16 libraries this year, helping students take a breather from the books and de-stress before the big day. With wagging tails and a talent for making people smile, our dogs offered a welcome study break, without asking a single tricky question.
For students juggling revision, nerves and “what if I forget everything?”, a little time with a friendly dog was a chance to relax and recharge. Our dogs couldn’t help with the exam answers, but they certainly knew how to make the preparation a little brighter.
Thank you to the libraries and our wonderful volunteer teams for making these moments possible. Best of luck to all the students, our paws are crossed for you!
HSC Support is one of our school and library programs. Libraries can request a visit.
