Outline
St Andrew’s College 1st Year Sailing Program
This is a new course aimed at students starting 1st year in SAC August 2024. This course is in advance of the start of the academic year and encourages new skills and friendships. Students will work together in teams on Keelboats and also in teams in dinghies such as Fevas or Optimists. It is a fun way to meet new friends and learn or advance sailing skills. When the wind does not agree sailors will have the opportunity to kayak or get involved in fun land based activities at the RSGYC.
