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

Hi Guy

This is an awesome project. We would love to be involved, if possible on an even bigger scale than just a link to our site. I have got great contacts in the media and if you can help me figure out how we can be more involved, I would love to spread the word. (This sounds like I will only do it if we are more involved, which is not what I meant, I will spread the word in any case, but as a creative person myself I think this project rocks.

Hi Trudi,

Thanks for your enthusiastic reply. I really appreciate it. It would be fab if we could 'bang our heads together' and turn the site into something that benefits everyone. If you would like to host a paper penguin, I have a couple who are eager to spread their wings (so to speak) and start travelling. I think it would make a great addition to the paper penguin family and website.
If you have any ideas on how to progress the Paper Penguin Project I would love to hear them especially if you have contacts in the media.
Once again thank you for your reply and I look forward to hearing from you.
All the best

Guy

Hi Trudi,
I have a group of penguins here that are playing poker to decide who comes out to stay and work with you at Penguins Eastern Cape.
If you could let me know the address to send him (or her) to then when they've finished I can pack their bag and send them off to you.

Speak to you soon

Hi Guy

I am so sorry that I am only getting back to you now – but we have had a sudden influx of young penguins and I have not touched sides. Our address is:

Private Bag X3
Suite 134
St Francis Bay
6312

I will wait for their arrival before I “hit” the media – or do you want me to start the story from before you send them? Please send me a contact number as I would love to discuss the issue with you.
