Project School Visit:
Central Public School (Cornwall)

Visit sponsored by:  TD Friends of the Environment Foundation

In April 2002 we visited Central Public School in Cornwall with our female peregrine falcon "Qetesh".  Below are some comments from the teachers:

The Grade 4 classes greatly enjoyed the Canadian Peregrine presentation.  They found the presenter was well-informed and this certainly enhanced their in-class Life Systems studies.  They were definitely "spellbound", both by his expertise and by the presence of a live peregrine falcon.   The funding of this presentation by the T.D. Canada Trust - Friends of the Environment was money wisely spent and very much appreciated.

My students had the opportunity to attend a very special presentation about the peregrine falcon.  We learned severeal facts about the peregrine, the reasons why the came very close to extinction and the effort made by the members of the Canadian Peregrine Foundation to ensure the survival of this species.

The presenter was very knowledgeable and he very successfully kept everyone's attention for close to an hour on a Friday afternoon.  This, in itself, is undeniable proof that the presentation was very commendable and most interesting.  A sincere "thank you" to the TD Canada Trust - Friends of the Environment Foundation for providing the funding necessary to enable the presenter to deliver this worthwhile program in our school.

A very interesting presentation - informative.  The information was geared to the students who were able to understand the subject matter.  It was a give-and-take presentation.  The students were able to ask questions and comment on the information.  Having a live falcon was a bonus.  It made the presentation more visible and they were able to see what the presenter was talking about.
