dinghy sailing. It is designed to teach participants how to sail, starting with the essential skills in the first course

More advanced skills and techniques are gradually introduced as students progress through the syllabus, so that
by the end they will be ready to start racing at their local sailing club or just enjoy being out on the water .While it is
not essential to start at the beginning, it will be harder to master the more advanced skills if students are not
familiar with the basics.

WHAT’S ON
The RATS
Eeek! Giant rats have flooded the streets!
Thankfully, a flautist has come from far, far away to enchant them
with a tune and distract the crowd.
See if you can help him find them. One is cute, one‟s slow and fat,
another is deliriously happy, and the last is a big meanie.
The MR SPIN Show You may have pulled some mad BMX stunts back in the day, but did you ever graduate to a custom eight-foot zigzag unicycle? Mr Spin did. In fact, he‟ll even ride this contraption while juggling three baseball bats and balancing a glass of water on his head. Witness the raw skills of this true circus performer and vaudevillian comic.
LURK
Like an enigmatic shadow, you never quite know where you'll find Lurk.
But when you do, he'll engage you with His eccentric musings and quirky
mime. Both kids and adults will love this tragicomic clown as he makes
his way back down to the place he once called home.
The GIANT SEAGULLS
Think Freo‟s seagulls are cheeky? Wait till you see the
mischief this pair bring from the UK. Keep one eye on your chips at all times, their nosy beaks will be
rummaging where they shouldn‟t be
