The NSRI WaterWise Instructors from Soweto to Ceres have been in Cape Town for the past three days honing their skills, discussing new teaching methods and learning from each other. So far this year the team, six of whom are sponsored by TNPA, have taught over 100 000 children about water safety. Armed with new skills and enthusiasm they have now all gone home where they will keep spreading Sea Rescue's water safety message to children.Here are some pictures from the three days.Sicisro Rossouw takes Lindo Zqubu and Kenneth Gagela through CPR.
