What are we learning?
All of our learnings and activities tie back to the 3 Pillars of Ocean School: 1) Respect the Ocean 2) Love the Ocean and 3) Give back to the Ocean.
Kids will learn: Love and respect for the ocean. Essential ocean safety knowledge and skills. Practical knowledge about the ocean (IE: tides, wind, waves, swell, rip and longshore currents, beach/reef/point breaks etc). Body awareness, positive body image and mind-body connection through FUNctional high-impact games & exercises, mindful movement. In-water practice and development of fundamental surf skills (surf etiquette, paddling, popping up, stance, how to wipeout safely). All about boards and how to manage them. Ocean conservation education and how to give back to ocean, take care of our environment and feel empowered through small day-to-day actions that make a huge difference.
