The NZ Sailing Trust was established with a vision of creating opportunities for New Zealanders to share a unique maritime experience on Sir Peter Blake’s iconic Whitbread Round the World Yachts.
We are offering teachers this sailing opportunity to those who would like to experience our vessels used for school programmes and meet the crew.
In addition to encouraging students personal development, our multi-day trips around the Hauraki Gulf focus on educating students about Sir Peter Blake, the boats histories, how the vessels are sailed and developing a deeper sense of environmental awareness.
The vessels we have are a great platform for the purposes of:
· Leadership programmes or prefect induction courses
· Boating Education NZ certificates such as Dayskippers or Boatmasters certificate
· Unique experience for International students
· Special needs or Wellbeing programmes,
· Cross Curricular programmes
· Environmental Leadership Programme with BLAKE
Experience the boats and see for yourself what we offer! This is an awesome opportunity to meet the crew and find out how the NZ Sailing Trust can offer your school a unique programme for your students.
