Waterwise Sailing at Manly Beach


Wow! What a fantastic way to wrap up the year and reapply our skills learn’t at camp earlier in the year, than to go sailing and kayaking at Manly for two days! 
Wednesday 12th and Thursday 13th December, saw our Year 6 children take part in a waterwise programme!
The weather was stunning both days and the children loved being outside and enjoying the wonderful resources we have on our door step. 
It was so fantastic to see their faces, as the optimists began to take off, and their confidence grow over the two days at the beach with kayaking and water confidence also. 
Our school values of being BRAVE, showing RESILIENCE, RESPONSIBILITY and having FUN were more than evident. 
A huge thank you to all the parents (and siblings) who came down and helped out either in the water or on land, it was so appreciated, the children and teachers were very thankful to have you there with us and hope you enjoyed your time. 
Another special mention to Julian Heath, Sue Lott, Lou Heath and Wendy Turton our wonderful waterwise instructors for your help in guiding our children out on the water and providing them with such memorable experiences. 
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
