Visit sponsored by: The Rouge Park Alliance

It seems incomprehensible that the visit from Michael and Sanchos was only three days ago. The children have explored so many integrated activities surrounding the reality of Ontario's endangered wildlife, the causes of their plight and the efforts being made to reintroduce the extraordinary birds. This is being executed with real compassion and dedication to scientific study.

The presentation made a huge impact on the ninety students involved in the two interactive events. The professional adherence to the Ontario curriculum plus the clarity of delivery and responses of the students, verified these results.

Since the school visit we have written journals, drawn pictures, created a food pyramid, and enjoyed pictures taken by the librarian, Mrs. Wilde. This afternoon the principal came in and started the novel, My Side of the Mountain. She will join us over the term to share the reading of this novel, with parents or Mrs. Valleau.

Bringing wildlife into the classroom teaches young people to have an early respect for the wonders of the world. The greatest gift was the cost. No cost. Thank you on behalf of the children and their teachers.

Sincerely,
Trudy E. Valleau
