MOSSEL BAY NEWS - Paul and Marina Eilers recently visited Mossel Bay's primary schools with a marine/shark awareness puppet show.
The grade 4 to 7 learners at St Luke’s in Brandwag, with the principal Mr Mann in attendance and representatives of the Gouritz Cluster Biosphere Reserve (GCBR), Wendy Crane and Luami Zondagh, enjoyed their performance very much.
The Garden Route Casino Community Trust funded the initial development of the script (Afrikaans and English versions, songs and a worksheet, some of the puppets and equipment).
The English version has been well received at numerous pre-schools in Mossel Bay.
An ongoing production, it is executed by passionate shark conservationist Esther Overbeeke of the Keep Fin Alive campaign.
The current run is co-sponsored by the Trust and the Mossel Bay Municipality.
The GCBR has been the facilitator of all the above mentioned legs of the shark/marine awareness programmes.
Paul and Marina are known for the excellence of their work and to attend one of their shows should be on anyone’s bucket list.
It is a successful partnership between the Trust, the Mossel Bay Municipality, the GCBR and service providers Marina, Paul and Esther.
