I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Canadian Peregrine Foundation and the EJLB Foundation for an excellent presentation. Staff and students at Macville Public School really enjoyed meeting Michael and Sanchos. Information was well delivered and received - even the teachers commented on how many new facts they learned about falcons. As a Grade 8 teacher I particularly appreciated the discussions involving optics and structural efficiency because I am always looking for real life examples to use as a comparison (e.g., the design of the falcon's eyes and body and how they create an efficient natural machine).

Again, thank you for presenting such a worthwhile program at our school. The children are very lucky to have viewed first-hand a true wonder of nature.

Sincerely

Catherine Horn

Thank you very much for the wonderful hour-long presentation for our junior students here at Macville Public School. The presenter, Mike, was excellent. He had superb control over his audience and was able to keep the group captivated throughout the entire presentation! More important, was our special visitor, Sanchos, the Falcon. He was so well-behaved and the students were mesmorized by his size and appearance. I hope this informative presentation will be able to continue throughout the Peel Board so that many other students can enjoy this terrific scientific program.

Thank you for your time and commitment to bringing wildlife into the classrooms.

Sincerely,

Brenda Leupolt - Grade Six Teacher
