Project School Visit:
Charles H. Best West Public School (Toronto)

Visit sponsored by: Friends of the Environment

On May 21, 2003 we visited Charles H. Best West Public School with one of our peregrine falcons.  Below is a letter we received from the school.

I'd like to thank you very much on behalf of the staff and students at Charles H. Best West Public School who were fortunate enough to attend your presentations in our school library last Wednesday morning.  We really enjoyed the style in which you presented the Peregrine Falcon Foundation information, and we would like to thank the TD Canada Trust - Friends of the Environment for providing the funding to enable you to attend our school to deliver the program.

The presentation was interesting, informative and humorous.  You spoke knowledgeably and with enthusiasm and obvious caring and commitment for the peregrines which you spoke about and for the particular one which you brought along and showed us.  Everyone in the room was engaged in your lively discussion. 

In addition, your presentation tied right into our life science curriculum on animal habitats and you even managed to make a connection to the grade four social studies medieval curriculum.  Thank you as well for the video and the teacher's information packets which you distributed, chock full of additional information and worksheets.  Once again, we'd like to thank the TD Canada Trust - Friends of the Environment for making this possible free of charge to our students,

Sincerely,

Shari Friedman, Grade 3/4 Teacher
