Surfing

Mr S Manners —

Surfing continues to grow in popularity at Burnside High, with over 50 pupils taking part in the “Learn to Surf” programme in Terms 1 and 4 this year, and a further 130 in the Level One Physical Education day trip.


It is becoming ever more common to see Burnside pupils “shredding” or “logging” around our Christchurch beaches. For most it is the early days of a lifelong hobby and, for some, the entrance into an ecologically minded sub-culture set against the beautiful backdrop of the New Zealand coastline.
