Sailing isn't done for the year just yet ⛵

October half term is the last proper chance to get the kids out on the water before winter. The centres are quieter, the water is still holding onto some summer warmth, and a few days now means they won't be starting from scratch in the spring.

Surrey families, you've got two weeks off this year (19 to 30 October). London schools mostly have the week of 26 October.

We've got RYA Stage 1 to 4 and Start Racing courses running, depending on the week and centre. All the details are on our blog 👇

You may have noticed we didn’t have any courses running today!
We closed the centres and took the team out SUPing to the pub for lunch.

With a busy school holiday programme just around the corner, we wanted to make sure the team are well rested, bonding well, and buzzing to get back on the water teaching.
We truly believe a happy team makes happy students.
