280 people took part in the Wakayama Surfing Federation’s
6th Pool Surfing School, which was held with a number of goals
in mind, including raising healthy young people through sport,
understanding the importance of out natural environment, challenging
oneself, understanding the wonder of the oceans through surfing,
and promoting safety through understanding the dangers and being
aware of emergency procedures.
The Ecoflag was flown at the event and we talked with the children
about global environmental problems and possible solutions. Participants
received a completion certificate and gifts from the event sponsors,
and there was a call to have the event again next year
The success of the event was due to the cooperation received from
Kindergarten, Nursery, and Primary school teachers, as well as
PTA.
