Students’ spooky ordeal for zoo fund - Daily Post North Wales

Students’ spooky ordeal for zoo fund - Daily Post North Wales: "Dec 8 2007 by Carl Butler, Daily Post

A GROUP of National Diploma Animal Management students from the Welsh College of Horticulture have donated a cheque of just under �200 to the Welsh Mountain Zoo after completing a scary enterprising challenge.

A group of six level two students at the Northop college, accompanied by two tutors and the Cheshire Paranormal Society, spent the night in the apparently haunted Stanley Palace in Chester.

During the night the students used the powers of a medium to try and make contact with spirits present in the Grade I listed building, which was built in the 17th Century.Š

The night proved to be a hive of activity with moving tables and alleged communications with another world.

With the hard bit over, the students took the opportunity to enjoy a day out of the classroom at the Welsh Mountain Zoo to hand the cheque over to management for the new alligator exhibit."
