Hi there all, KK Reef Watch is organizing another ‘I See, I Care, I Save’ Marine Education Program tentatively to be held in July (a series of 4 days program, during weekends). We are looking for additional facilitators to facilitate the students as well as life guards. Facilitator training will be held sometime in June and early July 2008. The purpose of the training is not only for the purpose of facilitating the students but to educate the facilitators as well. Facilitators will be taught on how to conduct interactive discussions on marine life with ‘hyperactive’ and ‘hypershy’ students, teaching students the correct technique to snorkel and how to observe marine life, how to handle students in the water, and how to do simple reef check. Other fringe benefits would be of course free trips to our beautiful islands within the Tunku Abdul Rahman Park and hang out with the cool KK Reef Watch’s team.
Requirements:
1) Good and strong swimmer
2) Comfortable with snorkeling gears
3) Comfortable in rough sea condition (strong current and big wave)
4) Water rescue and CPR certifications
(not necessary but would be nice!)
5) Knowledge on marine biology
(not necessary but would be nice too!)
6) Highly motivated
Those interested please drop us an e-mail at kkreefwatch@gmail.com
Here are some shots on the previous facilitator training in May 2008.
Part of the team (Bob, Paya, Johnny, Me, Min Hui) at the Manukan Jetty (note my lovely blue rashguard)
Salha (pink rashguard) giving briefing to the facilitators
Pointing at Paya’s ‘bruised and injured’ leg
Emergency exit by Bob at Gaya Island
Bob saved…. (it’s actually harder than it look, current was quite strong, and a marine snake was lurking in the water)
