After the Change For Children Discover Scuba sessions we noticed a few of the kids showed an aptitude and love for the ocean.

With this in mind we decided to offer and invite 5 of the boys the chance to complete the PADI Open Water course!

Of course they all jumped at the chance so the stage was set for Mark Anthony, Rey, Reynaldo, Derick and Ismael to get their thinking caps on, read the manuals and watch the videos so that Karl, with the brilliant assistance of fellow Instructor Kelly, could begin the course and take them through all the steps needed to become Open Water divers!

All of the boys showed incredible skills and confidence in the water and the whole experience was just amazing for them and for us!

Julia Wheeler who was here with Lucas Handley to film and document the Change For Children event, stuck around to shoot the course and here are some the truly awesome images that Julia created!
