In January 2002, we visited Vineland Public School with our female peregrine falcon "Penny". Below is a letter from the principal:
Thank you again, on behalf of the grade four and six students of Vineland School and their teachers, for providing us with the opportunity to meet Mr. Pfeffer and the beautiful peregrine falcon, Penny.
Our students were entranced by this regal bird during every moment of the presentation. Their interest was clearly evident in the number of questions they asked and in their ability to sit quietly and attentively throughout the presentation. They learned a great deal. The information presented relating to the falcon, the environment, and the related issues was relevant and directly tied to the curriculum. We can't thank you enough for the opportunity to meet both Mr. Pfeffer and Penny.
Our thanks also go to Land Care Niagara for their generous support of this project. It is not often that schools are given access to opportunities such as this - and without cost! We sincerely appreciate their support! we hope that other schools will be given the opportunity to enjoy similar programs in the future.
We look forward to participating in some of the other programs available for hawks and owls in the future. Thank you again from all of us at Vineland School.
Sincerely,
Dale
