Surf Up! Marine Explorers

By Claire Metcalf, 28th February 2019

The Marine Explorers group from Capricorn Primary have really taken to the surfing lessons this term.  Our aim is to positively connect these children to the ocean and what better way than learning how to safely ride some fun little waves at Muizenberg.

The kids have really enjoyed this term of surfing so far and next term we are looking forward to getting in the water in some snorkelling gear. Photo © Save Our Seas Foundation Shark Education Centre
