In April the educator and her helpers gave four
classes for 280 children of Serzhantovo school.
First, the children were tested on tiger topics. Then,
they saw a slide presentation about the Russian-
American Amur tiger project in Primorsky region of
Russia and the history of Terney town. The lessons
ended with a theatrical performance about the
Tigress and her cub.
For the middle classes the educator organized a
game-competition "Following Tiger Tracks". For
senior pupils (16-17 years old) she organized a film
screening of "Tigers of the Third Millennium" and
follow-up discussion of it.
On May 16, ten members of Uragus and three
educators went to Serzhantovo village for three days
for a meeting with their peers from a local tourist
club and a discussion of Amur tiger issues. The
hosts showed them a master class on rock climbing and took on an excursion to
Nikolaevsky cave in the vicinity of the town of Dalnegorsk. Heaps of garbage hampered
the participants from admiring the scenery, so they decided spontaneously to clean it. As
they had no space in their bus to take the garbage, they left 20 bags fully laden with
garbage on the roadside in the hope that some conscientious person would bring it to the
dump.
