Paper Penguin Project |
| |
|
| |
|
Hi,
My name is Guy Wooles and I’m an artist and designer. Twelve
years ago I set up the Paper Penguin Project as a final year piece
of work for my degree in Fine Art in Context. The project was
designed to be a fun and interesting as well as educational but
sadly it has lain dormant for a few years so now I've decided
to reinvigorate the site and get it up and running again.
I am planning to provide educational and conservation information
on the site as well as a page for penguin/wildlife related worksheets
for educational establishments as well as individuals. So if there's
anything you think I might include on the site or you have any
ideas or information I can use I would appreciate your suggestions.
If you would like to take part in the project by taking one of
my penguins and documenting its experiences with you it could
be an interesting and fun way to show people the work that you
do. Also you could use it as a vehicle to raise issues that you
are currently dealing with.
I assume this is the first you have heard of the Paper Penguin
Project so all the information can be found on the site for you
to decide whether you would like to get involved in the project.
I have had penguins at the North Pole, New Zealand and Hong Kong
– to name but a few. So they are already well travelled!
I have added your link to my site and was also hoping that you
might place my link on your site. If you don’t think it
appropriate this does not mean that I will remove your link.
Thank you for your time

Guy,
I've been away on holiday - just back today and found this amongst
hundreds of other emails.
And yes! We'd love to be included - what's involved? Where are educational
aspects? (We are just revamping education programme to make it more
hands on and involving)
Regards,
Glenda

Hi Glenda,
Thanks for replying. I was wondering whether you would like to take
one of my Paper Penguins and document the work that is done at the
zoo in the form of photos and emails? This information can then
be published on the Paper Penguins website. The penguin can be used
to highlight any conservation or education issues that you would
like to raise, as well as being a fun and interesting way to see
'behind the scenes' of a busy zoo.
I have just got back in contact with one of my penguins, Elvis,
who is residing with Sue Dow. Sue is the research and sustainability
officer at Bristol Zoo. I'm hoping the Project could also be away
of bringing different zoos and organisations together to share information
and ideas.
I have had two Penguin and conservation related organisations in
South Africa express a keen interest in getting involved as well.
If you would still like to get involved that would be great because
I'm very keen on getting a Welsh organisation involved in the project.
Let me know what you think and if you are happy then we can arrange
for a very lucky penguin to come and stay!
Thanks again and all the best.
Speak to you soon
Guy

Guy,
Yes please - we'd love to get involved. Did I tell you we are just
revamping our education programme, so this is the perfect time for
us to join in.

Hi Glenda,
Well the auditions are over and the live shows have been viewed.
So now I can finally reveal the winner of 2011's 'The P Factor'
is............................................Archie!
To be honest it didn't take long. He had his hat, coat and boots
on before I had even finished mentioning the adventure to Manor
House Wildlife Park.
I am hoping to bring him down myself sometime next week if that's
OK with you (after the half-term rush)? Is there a bad or good time
for you? If so let me know and we can arrange the best time. Obviously
I will give you plenty of notice beforehand. Hopefully I can take
some cracking pictures for the website while I'm there too.
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Guy

Hi Glenda,
Thursday sounds like a good day. Let me know if there's any time
which is inconvenient but I will aim to get there about 1pm. Any
problems let me know. Hopefully it will be a sunny day!

Guy,
Big thanks for today - I've decided to bring Archie back home until
next week as I'm away for a few days.
Will give you an update next week and get photos off to you.
In the meantime give me details of your prints, cards etc and some
low res images of them and I'll talk to Nicky, the retail manager,
next week.
I'll also sort out some images for you over the next two weeks -
I've got some cracking animal pics gathered up.
Hopefully we'll get Archie established over the winter, and enroll
him in the education programme.
Also can you send me the contact detail for Ted Brattstrom and Tawaki
at Pearl City High School, so I can pass them on to Marten at the
Darwin Centre, that would be brilliant.
Hope you had a good journey home - looking forward to building new
connections with Archie.
Regards,
Glenda

Hi Glenda,
It was great to meet you on Thursday. I hope your mum had a great
birthday.
I've emailed Ted just to make sure he doesn't mind me passing
on his details (can't see any problems but thought I'd better
ask first!).
I updated Archie's page on Thursday night and the pics look great.
If you would like me to change or add anything to the captions
then please let me know.
Thanks alot and hope to hear form you soon.
Guy
PS-Tell Archie to wish Anna a full and speedy recovery from the
Paper Penguin family and me!
