Across the term, your ākonga build skills, knowledge and connection — from breath and body, through pool training and two guided ocean field trips, into marine science, restoration and leadership. It's built on our Te Wheke Hauora Moana framework, where each tentacle of the wheke holds a dimension of hauora explored through the ocean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"margin:20px 0 8px;\"\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKura ready to make the moana part of the timetable — minimum 25 ākonga (one class), and two or more classes unlock the lower rate.

Pool training builds freedive safety skills through the middle weeks, then two guided field trips take the learning into the moana — the sheltered bays of the Bay of Islands, with options to Kai Iwi Lakes, the Cavalli Islands or the Poor Knights Islands marine reserve for senior groups. Follow-up sessions and a restoration project close the circle, and senior ākonga can extend into SSI ecology specialties — Marine Ecology, Fish Identification, Shark \u0026amp; Ray Ecology, Marine Mammal Ecology. We map the term together, align it to your curriculum goals, and finish with a debrief and written report for your board, funders and whānau.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"margin:20px 0 8px;\"\u003ePrice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e$140 per ākonga + GST\u003c\/strong\u003e for a single class (minimum 25 ākonga) · \u003cstrong\u003e$130 per ākonga + GST\u003c\/strong\u003e when two or more classes join (50+ ākonga).
