Chimp Adoption
Our first adoption pack has arrived! I'd like to welcome Chinoise to our class. Thank you for all the hard work and money you raised.
Don't worry if you didn't have a chance to run your event. Hopefully, we can when we return. As a class we can decide what to spend the extra money on.
