WWF at Kalapuan Island

Yesterday morning, Carla and myself went to visit Kalapuan Island having been invited by WWF to join them for a education and awareness session with the local children for Turtle Conservation and to judge a sand castle shaped like a turtle competition. The local villagers gave us a very warm welcome and it was great to see everyone participate in the training run by Gavin and his colleagues at WWF, with quizzes and talks. After the talks, everyone split into 4 groups and made either a green turtle or Hawksbill Turtle

昨日の朝、WWFのセミナーに招待されてカラプアン島に行ってきたのよ。WWFがこの島に住む子供達に海亀の保護セミナーを開き、そのあとはチームごとにビーチの砂を使って海亀作り大会。島の人たちも私達を温かく迎えてくれました。WWFのガビンを中心に開かれたこのセミナー会、子供達が興味をひく話やクイズを交えて楽しい会になったわ。
