After school kayak program

The After School Kayak Program is run every week during school term 1 and 4. It runs at the Mossy Point Boatshed and starts at 3.30pm. The program is a perfect avenue for a young persons wanting to learn the art of kayaking or a student that has prior knowledge and wants to further develop their skills in a fun environment. The benefits of this program include that it's run by highly qualified, friendly and professional staff, the lessons/activities are run at a learner friendly location on the estuary in Mossy Point and the students will be surrounded by similar aged, like minded individuals that will provide an encouraging, supportive and fun-filled learning environment. 

The best part about the program, is that each week the program aims to build on skills and the students graduate with enough knowledge and confidence to particpate in other kayak adventures away from their home. 

Students will gain extensive knowledge about tides, currents, wind, weather and safety considerations around the activity. They will also develop their skills from basic strokes up to advanced strokes performing skilled manoeuvres. We will refine their paddling, posture and fitness. Students will also gain some basic decision making knowledge, rescue techniques and understand equipment requirements for diverse environments. The most important component to this program is that it is fun and non-threatening.....meaning that students of all ages and abilities can join in and have an absolute blast.
