She dedicated her life to champion donkeys, and it is through her amazing devotion that the Sanctuary grew to the international charity it is today. Sadly Dr Svendsen passed away in 2011 but her memory lives on in our work, as does her eternal motto that, in everything we do, donkeys will always come first, second and third. Our Vision A world where donkeys and mules live free from suffering and their contribution to humanity is fully valued. Our mission To transform the quality of life for donkeys, mules and people worldwide through greater understanding, collaboration and support, and by promoting lasting, mutually life-enhancing relationships. Moving forward as one During the last 45 years, The Donkey Sanctuary has made a profound difference to the lives of donkeys and people all over the world. This is down to the drive and belief of our wonderful Founder, Dr Elisabeth Svendsen, MBE, our staff and volunteers, and of course our fantastic supporters and partners worldwide. However, there is still much to do. By 2018 we want to be able to give a helping hand to two million donkeys each year in 40 countries, to double the number of donkeys in foster care to 3,000 and to expand our donkey assisted therapy programme in the United Kingdom and internationally. We look forward to working together to make the world a better place for donkeys and mules and to improve the lives of those who rely on them or come into contact with them from all over the world. 4 THE DONKEY SANCTUARY ANIMALS AND THEIR HABITATS: KS1 WHAT WE DO. Rescue and Rehoming Aim: Never to turn away from donkeys and mules in need and provide lifelong care for them in the UK and Ireland. Our Farms: We currently have an incredible 6,200 donkeys in our care, with around 500 living at our main Sanctuary at Sidmouth, Devon. Our ten farms in the UK and Ireland provide much needed care for the hundreds of donkeys that are relinquished into our care every year. Donkeys in the Community Aim: To reduce the suffering of domestic and working donkeys due to neglect, ill-treatment, illness, ignorance and injury. Working Worldwide: We support projects in 28 countries, carrying out 450,000 veterinary treatments and benefiting over a million donkeys and mules worldwide. Practical Research: We have an active research team that facilitates and carries out non-invasive research to improve the health, welfare and knowledge-base of donkeys and mules. Donkey Health and Welfare: We have produced a number of fact sheets to help donkey owners as well as providing training courses for people who are planning to own, or foster, a pair of donkeys. Human and Donkey interactions Aim: To improve the lives of both donkeys and people through positive human and donkey interactions. Donkey Assisted Therapy: The emotional, physical and calming benefits of animal interactions are evident in our work with both the elderly in care homes and children with additional needs, with 50,000 assisted therapy sessions for being given in 2013. We have Donkey Assisted Therapy centres in Belfast, Birmingham, Ivybridge, Leeds, Manchester, Sidmouth, Ethiopia, Italy, Romania and Spain Education: We are involved in lifelong education initiatives and the provision of educational resources in the UK and worldwide. Wild Sanctuary In 2013 we were awarded Higher Level Stewardship status by Natural England for areas at our farm headquarters in Devon. The grant will help develop a number of projects including protecting foraging for rare bat species, mana ging species-rich grassland, restoring hedgerows of very high environmental value and environmental educational work. 5 THE DONKEY SANCTUARY ANIMALS AND THEIR HABITATS: KS1 ABOUT THIS RESOURCE: ANIMALS AND THEIR HABITATS: KS1 This resource has been developed and produced as part of a series by The Donkey Sanctuary with a view to furthering one of its core aims in promoting understanding, care and welfare issues for animals by young people. It has been developed to cover a range of aspects of the new 2014 KS1 Programmes of Study. It primarily covers the Science POS Animals, Living Things and their Habitats, but it is presented in a project based learning format with many cross curricular links to other areas such as Geography, Art and Design, Design and Technology, English and PSHE. Animals and their Habitats has been developed with teacher and environmental specialist input with an aim to provide a detailed and usable resource for everyday use by teachers. The resource consists of the following: A visually engaging and detailed lesson by lesson Power Point presentation. Worksheets to support all lessons and key learning points. A teacher guide outlining: o learning objectives, o key questions, o lesson structure, content and sequence, o links to the new 2014 national curriculum programmes of study. The pdf version of this resource has been made available on the Times Educational Supplement (TES) website: www.tes.co.uk via The Donkey Sanctuary membership area. The pdf has been made “presentation friendly” by breaking down each animation / reveal onto a separate slide so that it functions well. A Power Point version is available free of charge on CD if you send a contact name, school address and contact details to the email below. We would welcome any feedback, additions or comments concerning this resource which can be directed to The National Schools Programme Coordinator: [email protected] 6 THE DONKEY SANCTUARY ANIMALS AND THEIR HABITATS: KS1 LINKS TO THE 2014 KS1 NATIONAL CURRICULUM Art and Geography Science POS Mathematics POS Design POS POS Explain Explore the Explain and To ask and differences in of use a Identify Understand Understand give answer length and range of To and name Identify Identify Explore the and and examples questions height (for materials recognise a variety and and Sort, group differences explain explain how Construct, of animal about example, creatively to and explain of describe describe and between omnivores, plants and explain and adaptation totalling and long/short, effectively the key animals a variety a variety categorise living, dead carnivores animals understand and comparing longer / design and physical and of micro of macro plants and and never and depend on simple food suitability categorical shorter, make features LESSON plants habitats habitats animals alive herbivores each other chains to habitats data tall/short) products around us 1 X X X 2 X X X 3 X X 4, 5, 6, 7 X X X X X 8 X X 9 X X X 10 X X X 11 X 12 X X X Computing PSHE POS Design Technology POS POS ENGLISH POS Select from Read Identify and and use a Develop aloud explain range of tools Use confidence their Explain examples and Select from technology Able to Able to in writing factors of what Design an Generate, equipment to and use a Effectively purposefully develop write down discussing clearly that affect Show improves appropriate develop and perform wide range of evaluate to create, sentences ideas what they enough to the health empathy and harms product communicate practical materials and ideas and manipulate by and/or key have be heard and well- for their local, based on their ideas task, (cutting, components, products and retrieve sequencing words, written with by their being of animals natural and design through shaping, including against appropriate to form including the teacher peers and living and built criteria and talking and joining and construction design digital short new and other the LESSON things. others. habitats research. drawing. finishing) materials criteria. content narratives. vocabulary. pupils. teacher. 1 2 3 4, 5, 6, 7 X X X X X X 8 X X X X 9 10 11 X X 12 X X 7 THE DONKEY SANCTUARY ANIMALS AND THEIR HABITATS: KS1 Animals and their habitats Scheme of learning: KS1 12 week programme of 90 minute lessons Lesson Focus and Learning Objectives Sequence of activities and content Resources 1 Identifying and grouping Plant or animal sheet: 1:1 common animals and 1.

For the trustees, the privilege of being in a position of governance brings with it the responsibility of ensuring that as an organisation we remain focused on making that difference. As you will see from the pages that follow, the charity has had another remarkable year and, tempting though it is to concentrate on the figures, I encourage you to look behind and beyond the numbers and to read for yourself the stories and testimonials that show just how we are addressing a real need in the donkeys, as well as in those adults and children who benefit from their labours and companionship. There is no shortage of need.
