NIPPERS....FOR EVERYONE !

surf skills start here...

Welcome to our Thirroul Nippers Junior page. We hope that this encourages you to join or renew as we are proud to have such a strong community of nippers!

​

The Purpose of Nippers

​

  • Children learn about beach/water safety

  • Children learn essential life saving skills

  • It's absolutely great fun!

  • We are developing our future life savers that will take their turn on beach patrol for their community

  • It get's us all out of the house on a Sunday morning
