CHILDREN will have a chance to find out more about animal welfare at a symposium organised by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals next month.
The Animal Welfare Symposium for Students is targeted at those aged between 11 and 14.
To be held on March 7 at the Singapore Management University, the symposium will cover the plight of domestic animals like cats and dogs, as well as animal cruelty involved in product testing and the use of animals for entertainment purposes.
SPCA education executive Selina Sebastian said: "We find that students enjoy learning about animals through an interactive approach...
"We are going to have games and quizzes related to animal welfare to make it an engaging and inspiring learning experience for them."
