Meet Zak, the Search and Rescue dog!


As part of our Junior PCSO training, Year Six were lucky enough to meet Zak this week! Zak, who is a search and resuce dog, demonstrated how quickly he can find a missing person. It was incredible to watch!
 
First, we learned about all the different scenarios that search and rescue dogs would be used in.


When Zak isn't wearing his harness, he is in 'play mode' and therefore just a normal pet dog.

However, when Zak's harness is attached, he focuses and is now in 'work' mode.

GO! Zak sprinted off to find the nearest human scent.

Amazingly, he quickly found Emma, our PCSO, who was hidden deep within the bushes!


 
After we met Zak, we had the opportunitiy to learn about (and try on!) different parts of the Police and PCSO uniform
 


Some of us looked very professional with all of the gear on!





















Some of the hats were slightly too big...



 

Finally, here is a very official looking policeman pointing out the charter we have agreed to follow as Junior PCSOs!
