The cooler weather is starting to disappear and the days are slowly getting a little longer and lighter!
This means, once again, our Learn To Sail programs are going to be kicking off very soon! ⛵
If your kids have ever watched the little white sails out on the bay and wondered "could I do that?" — this is their chance. No experience needed, no boat needed (we supply the Optimists), just kids aged 8+ who can swim and are keen to give it a go.
Sailing at Charteris Bay is about way more than boats. Our juniors learn independence, resilience and teamwork — and they learn it outdoors, on the sheltered waters of the sunniest side of Lyttelton Harbour, with a crew of new mates alongside them.
🗓 Sessions kick off in October
⛵ Mon/Tues after school — and NEW this season, we're looking at adding a WEEKEND option if there's enough interest!
Registrations aren't open just yet, but here's the important bit: we're taking expressions of interest NOW — and the more families who put their hand up for weekends, the more likely we can make that option happen.
