Whitsunday Anglican School’s Junior School was awash with colour earlier this month, as students donned red and yellow in support of surf lifesaving as part of the nationwide Red & Yellow Day initiative.
Held annually on March 4, the event recognises the vital contribution of volunteer surf lifesavers who dedicate their time to keeping Australian beaches safe.
Students from Prep to Year 4 took part in an engaging beach safety session, led by Senior School students Zara, Hayden, Amelia and Nate, alongside staff, volunteers and Nippers from Eimeo Surf Life Saving Club. The presentation reinforced key safety messages and highlighted the importance of awareness in and around the surf.
Funds raised through the initiative will be distributed to local clubs across the Mackay region, including Mackay Surf Life Saving Club, Sarina Beach Surf Life Saving Club and Eimeo Beach Surf Life Saving Club, supporting the ongoing efforts of volunteers on the frontline of beach safety.
