"Hey Britt,
thanks for that. I think the session went a bit crazy for a while there and a shame the live cross kept dropping out. Thanks for helping to manage the disruptors. I think that age is mostly about pushing boundaries and having them log in…"

- Thanks for today
For some reason I was expecting about rhinos but didn't matter- I like the chance for these opportunities as they arise when they can fit in. We left straight after the movie at 2:40pm or so. Kids liked the abcd things and were busy writing questions for me to post.
I was lucky as our system crashed after a power blackout and I only got back up and going at 1:45pm. I was almost thinking we were going to miss out.
Thanks again and would like to join in again if you or other zoo staff do another one suitable for primary kids.
Regards

- Hi Rick,
I am still quite new to these conferences and was just wondering if this conference is targeted towards educators or primary school students? I have a Grade 5/6 Grade and we are currently exploring a unit on threatened species and your conference looks as though it would tie in wonderfully.
If you could let me know, that would be a great help! :)
