La ‘Patrulla Canina’ visita las Escuelas Infantiles Municipales de Benidorm

Municipal nursery schools (EIM) that teach the first cycle of Primary Education (0 to three years). El Tossalet and Les Fontanelles have received a visit from the Canine Unit of Benidorm Local Police in an initiative that aims for the little ones to "learn to interpret the language of dogs to improve relationships between children and animals", he said. said the Councilor for Education, Maite Moreno.

This is a joint program organized by the Departments of Education and Public Service Security that began in the EIM and “starting on Monday, February 5, it will begin to tour the 14 educational centres in the city,” added Moreno.

This time it will not be Marschall, Chase or Skye, members of the original cartoon 'Paw Patrol', who will travel to schools. It is Hanko, a four-year-old male integrated into the 'K9', the Benidorm Canine Unit that, it should be remembered, has been serving the city since 2017 who has attended the centres and, also, dressed in a Superman cape.

Hanko has delighted the students, about forty in El Tossalet and more than 130 in Les Fontanelles; also his educators and monitors and, of course, his directors, Mariví Durán and Manuel Ángel Zahoreno, respectively. Zahonero has made it clear that “they had a great time” seeing how Hanko “greeted, executed the orders given to them by the agents or interacted” with the children under three years old who have caressed him and shown their affection at all times.

Maite Moreno has specified that the sessions have been designed so that joint groups of “at least” two classrooms can participate in them and that the City Council has “made a calendar of visits” with the availability of Local Police and Hanko agents. to specify the dates and “so that the experience can be enjoyed by everyone and in all the schools in Benidorm.”
