Merry Christmas With Love Fro

Merry Christmas
With Love From Bondi

The generosity of our community, Surf Club members and local businesses has shone through yet again! Our Giving Tree is positively heaving with gifts for those less fortunate which will be distributed at our Christmas lunch and afterwards.

Everyone will receive a hamper too thanks to Kathmandu, Bondi Wash and many others.

We look forward to seeing you all later this morning. Again, if anyone is able to help out, please come down and join us!

Wishing you all a safe, joyful and happy Christmas Day!

Yesterday the Club held a Chri

Yesterday the Club held a Christmas lunch for all-comers. We served more than 100 meals in the Blue Room and outside on the back deck and sent 50 more to a homeless shelter in Surry Hills at the end of the day. Enormous thanks must go out to @ourbigkitchen and @harrisfarmmarkets for supplying food to feed so many.
To Sebastian Cassie for organising the day, to chef @edwardtutaki who showed up early and took charge in the kitchen, to Club members Romy Meerkin, Peter Magdas, Lucy and Guy Alder and Dan Rosado who helped out along with so many others who answered our call for volunteers, thank you too!
Days like these show what a great community Bondi Surf Club is part of!

To become a Lifesaver you trai

To become a Lifesaver you train both on and off the beach. The classroom sessions will cover the theory and practical skills in resuscitation and first aid. The beach sessions will cover how to carry out a rescue, work as a team and manage the beach.

Our next 8 week Bronze Medallion course to become a lifesaver starts on 8th January.

Christmas Bottles and Bronze G

Christmas Bottles and Bronze Graduation

This Sunday’s Bottles (19 Dec) is the final one of the year and it’s going to be huge!

Almost 80 new lifesavers will graduate this week and join our patrols for the busy holiday season. BM1 and BM2 complete their eight-week training course with their assessments this weekend, the one-week Lightning Course has been on the beach all week and will be put through their paces tomorrow and a large group of SRCs completed theirs on Tuesday. Come along to Bottles, introduce yourselves and welcome them to the fold.

With Christmas less than a week away, there’s also a caroller coming to sing acapella for us in the Main Hall along with our special Surf Club Santa on his throne so you can make your Christmas wishes and take that holiday snap. The action kicks off at 5:30pm with treats for the kids, and pizza and music

Our new Surf Lifesaving Austra

Our new Surf Lifesaving Australia yellow patrol shirts have an Ampol logo on the arm – but Ampol has been concerned with improving beach safety for a long time, as seen in this article from the Bondi Surfer from 1962. Ampol commissioned a colour movie to showcase surf lifesaving techniques with the aim of educating the general public in resuscitation methods.

You can see more of the Bondi Surfers from the 1950s and 1960s here https://bondisurfclub.com/the-club/history/bondi-surfer-list-of-past-editions/
