| Introduction | I am a secondary school science teacher and the Vice Principal at Country Garden Montessori Academy, a small private school in Newmarket. I am originally from Vancouver but currently live in Toronto. I have always been interested in Jane Goodall’s work and admire the impact that she has had on the protection of chimpanzees around the world. I strongly believe that we all play a role in protecting the environment; I hope that our trip to Uganda will help other teachers learn some new methods that they can utilize to teach about the importance of the conservation of their nations biodiversity. In my free time, I love traveling, scuba diving, skiing, reading and exploring the diverse neighbourhoods in Toronto during the summer months. |
