●To share the benefits of engaging with the ocean for an individual’s physical, mental, social and environmental wellbeing.
Achievements and Performance
2022 has been a year of further development for City Kids Surfing. We have continued to develop our partnerships with primary schools in London, corporate partners and other charitable relationships. It has been exciting to see our team of volunteers develop, and find new people to connect with and support the City Kids Surfing cause.
During the year we ran a wonderful programme crafted for two primary schools, working with some of their pupil premium children in year 5. This involved spending time with the staff and pupils in school, raising their awareness of both ocean conservation and coastal safety, as well as developing their understanding of holistic health – i.e. not just physical wellbeing.
Our programme culminated in a fantastic weekend in North Devon, experiencing time at the beach and gaining insight into the beauty and power of the ocean. During the weekend they all had the opportunity to learn to surf over a number of lessons. All of the children improved greatly, finding joy and challenge in the waves, pushing themselves out of their comforts zones within the safety of a great team around them.
As ever our programme included a focus on healthy eating – both eating healthily over the weekend, as well as inviting the children to play their own part in food preparation and learn new skills and meal ideas to take home with them. They made their own pizzas and their own burgers, growing in their knowledge of how to make healthy choices around food.
A growing part of the programme has also been on mindfulness and deliberate movement. We had great sessions helping the children be mindful of their thoughts, emotions and bodies, as well as giving the opportunity to take part together in a HIIT (high intensity interval training) session. This enabled them to think about how they challenge and support their bodies, and again gained skills and practices that they could take will them beyond the year’s programme.
We have been excited in the later part of 2022 to be looking ahead to the future and planning towards 2023 with the opportunity to revamp our website and online presence. We look forward to this being completed and launched in early 2023.
It’s exciting seeing how City Kids Surfing has grown this year, and the individuals who have come on board are keen to see it further develop. Watch this space!
