Surfing for William Pike Challenge

The incoming tide was perfect.

 

Wetsuits on and ready to surf.

Run the fins on to the sand and leap off.

Making it look easy!       

Thanks to West Coast Surf , Leeann and Mark, for two fantastic sessions. 

Tauranga Bay was incredible on the day.

Place Based Learning

Mark from West Coast Surf begins instruction for Year 8s

We learned about waves, rips, and "washing machines"!

We completed our scavenger hunt.

A replica of an astrolabe was our final destination.

Beached as...!

Practising our stance... sideways surfing is a thing!

Year 7s at the astrolabe.

Wet suits on.

Board in hand and ready to go...

How it is done... usually the board is beneath you.

I am listening, really, I am.

Tauranga Bay

And on...

Great balance/stance.
