Project School Visit:
Sir Ernest MacMillan Public School (Burlington)

Visit sponsored by:  TD Friends of the Environment Foundation

In June 2002, we visited Burlington's Sir Ernest MacMillan Public School with our female peregrine falcon "Ariel".  Below is a letter from the principal:

On behalf of my staff and students, I would like to thank you very much for the fine presentation that we experienced on June 17, 2002.  Thank you too for the resources that were left at our school for use by our teachers (e.g. the video "Life on the Ledge").

Maya Basdeo did a wonderful job of presenting our students with a great deal of information, in an interesting and meaningful fashion.  She engaged that children well and held their attention from the beginning to the end of her session.  Of course, having a live bird visit was truly exciting!

Many thanks to your organization and to the Toronto Dominion Bank for its sponsorship of this worthwhile series.  I am hopeful that, in future, other schools will have the opportunity to experience this special, curriculum-based program.

Best wishes,

Janice Hambrock
Principal
