Welcome to the Seals Section of HISC Website

HISC SEALS is aimed at getting the Under 10s happy and confident on and in the water!

We will plan fun games and activities for you and your children to do together in the water.

Parental involvement is necessary, please remember you are responsible for your children at all times and life jackets must be worn.

Kayaks, boogie boards, Oppis, Teras, etc... all watercraft welcome!

SEAL events are about fun and getting on the water and not about racing or training (other youth groups cover this), and novices are actively encouraged to join in.

Future diary dates are:

May 26 2013

June 23 2013

July 7 2013

Aug 25 2013

We will add more dates if the weather and tide is right and it just seems to good to miss! An email will go out through the HISC Yahoo Group and a SEAL Facebook Group (http://bit.ly/9GWF2y) promoting a forthcoming SEAL event.

HISC boats borrow:

This year we will have some HISC boats available to borrow (free) during the Seals allocated time, these will include Oppis, Tera and Fevas.

HISC seals is run by volunteers so please do help out where you can! Parents remain responsible for their children at all times, and life jackets are mandatory. Where possible, a safety boat may be on hand to assist, but this is not guaranteed. HISC Crew and volunteers running these fun events take no responsibility for participants' safety.
