VCAL Learn to Surf Excursion

As part of our Personal Challenge unit, the Year 11 VCAL students ventured out to YCW beach at Phillip Island to try their hand at surfing. The session pushed students outside of their comfort zones, with some facing their fear of swimming among big waves. All staff and students had a great time and while no students were signed up for the world surfing tour, there was plenty of ‘hanging ten’ achieved on the day.
