Event organiser Settlement Services International ran the Surf Safety Day on Saturday 26 October which helps educate new migrants and refugees to Australia on how to be safe in the ocean.

Working with local lifesavers, participants were taught how to be surf safe and the importance of staying between the red and yellow flags.

Before heading home, participants were given a bus timetable in case they would like to travel back to the beach another day.

Settlement Services International is a community service that assists and empowers new migrants and refugees as they successfully settle in Australia. The organisation helps them gain independence and build lasting connections in their communities.
