🌟 What an amazing season for our Starfish Nippers! 🌟On Saturday, 1st March, we wrapped up the season with a fantastic collaboration event in Noosa, joining nine other all-ability nippers groups from across Queensland—including clubs from Port Douglas to the Gold Coast! 🌊🏄‍♂️A huge thank you to Seahorse Nippers - Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club and Noosa Heads Slsc and all the incredible volunteers for inviting us back for a second year—what a way to finish the season! 🙌💙This season has been truly special, with a mix of new and returning Starfish Nippers, many with siblings in nippers too. None of this would be possible without our amazing clubbies, who provide 1:1 support and help our Starfish gain confidence, learn new skills, and overcome their fears in the water. 🏊‍♂️💪A big shoutout to the PCs and clubbies on patrol—our Starfish love saying hi during their patrol tours, and your warm welcome makes every session even more special.💙 Thank you from all of us at Starfish Nippers—see you next season! 💙Thank you to the amazing Soo Smith and all the Starfish mentors for everything you do. #starfishnippers #inclusivesurflifesaving #thankyouvolunteers #CommunitySpirit #SeeYouNextSeason ...

Dear members, visitors and locals,I am hopeful that the Sunshine Coast, including Mooloolaba SLSC, appears to have avoided the most severe impact of Tropical Cyclone Alfred. However, the latest forecasts indicate that the region may experience heightened weather conditions this evening and into tomorrow morning. In accordance with directives from Surf Life Saving Queensland, Mooloolaba SLSC will remain closed tomorrow.This closure includes the cancellation of all scheduled patrols and club training activities. The safety of our members and the public remains our paramount concern. I recognize these precautionary measures may cause inconvenience and test everyone's patience; however, they are essential to mitigate potential risks associated with the forecasted weather.To that end, we are actively monitoring the situation and will communicate any updates or changes to the SLSQ directives as they become available. Your cooperation and understanding during this time are greatly appreciated, and I look forward to resuming normal club activities soon!Sincerely,Trent RobinsonMSLSC President ... See MoreSee Less
