I received this email from Australia Zoo at lunch time on Tuesday. This is fantastic news to hear from the Zoo. I have spoken to the preps about how proud and happy I am with receiving an email like this.
I would like to thank Mrs Ayres, Miss Sheree and all the parents that assisted for the day. I think all the preps also need to thanked for the outstanding behaviour on the trip to Australia Zoo.
Dear Montville School, I would like to write this to express my delight of having your students and teachers take part in our Public Elephant Feed on the 20/11/2012. We usually cringe at having huge amounts of school kids coming through the elephant feed as most teachers let the children run free and expect us to wrangle them. The group of staff that visited from Montville we're fantastic and everyone pitched in to help the students feed the elephants! Definitely the best group of students and teachers we've had take part in our elephant feeds since I began working with the elephants a few years ago. Congratulations Montville! Your students and staff that visited us today have set a great example on behalf of your school!
Thanks
Luke Reavley
