Surf for Life Project

On Saturday 9th May Solitary Islands Surf School ran a Vegemite SurfGroms Program. The Program was run with North Coast Settlement Service for their families that have children aged 5 to 12yr olds.

The day was a great chance for the students to not only experience surfing but to learn valuable ocean awareness and beach safety skills that will be an asset for the rest of their lives. Activities on the day were a mix of challenge by choice and were designed so participants have maximum fun in the ocean. Each participant received a fantastic Quicksilver or Roxy participation pack.
A huge thank you from the Coffs Harbour Public School participants. They still can’t wipe the smiles from their faces.

On Friday 64 students went to Woolgoolga to represent Coffs Public at the District Cross Country. The weather was beautiful with the sun out all day long. We had students competing in the 8 and 9’s races, 10’s, 11’s and the 12’s and 13’s. In the ten years boys Farith came 4th and in the eleven years boys Luke came 3rd. In the twelve and thirteen years boys Mabior came 1st, Keanu came 4th and I came 10th just making it to the next level.
