A Special Treat (Again!)
The 5th and final semester is now in full swing. On Wednesday all our students wrote the last examination for the course – the Trails Guide Exam. Results seem brilliant so far! Well done ladies and gents!
Today, some of our students started heading off to their lodge or research placements, we are once again, amazed at how quickly this course has flown by.‘Time flies when you’re having fun’ is certainly a true saying. We wish all our students all the best at their placements, we are very proud to see what fine, knowledgeable Field Guides they have become and are sure they will have great fun with their new careers in the African bush!
Talking about the African bush…towards the end of the last course (end of 2010), a Pangolin visited our campus on numerous occasions – more than 10 times! Now, as this course comes to an end, the Pangolin has resurfaced for a few more visits. It is totally relaxed around us and was recently found having a look around our lecture room! For around 5 or 6 nights, this magnificent creature has graced us with its presence. As most of you will know, this is a very very rare sighting and we are truly gifted to have been witness to these visits. We are also starting to wonder if it doesn’t pop round at the end of every course to bid our students farewell! We will have to keep an eye out on the July 2011 course – we really hope to see a return!
