Making Waves Sailing Program
By Mrs Stoneley
Making Waves – sailing program
On Thursday, March 7th, a small group of students set off in the bay with Huw and his colleagues to make connections with peers, learn a thing or two about the sailing boat we were on and enjoy the sea breeze.
We were lucky enough to be on the vessel that won the Sydney to Hobart race multiple times in its career, as well as several other accolades to its name.
Our students had the option to steer, learn about the parts of the vessel and assist in putting up the sail. They were given rope to practice their knot skills, which will be put into action next week on board.
It was a great morning out on the water and the students are looking forward to next week’s session – hopefully with some sunshine!
