NOTTINGHAM ROAD's SILINDELE PRIMARY SCHOOL VISIT TO uSHAKA MARINE WORLD, 26.11.08 Nottingham Road Tourism wanted to spread the Festive Season Christmas cheer and sponsored Silindele Primary School, after the principal Mildred, had come to the NRTIC office to ask for help in planning a day trip for the kids to the beach. We looked at various options together on the Internet, which included places like the Snake Park, Mini-Town, Botanical Gardens - we also looked at uShaka, but the entrance fees were unaffordable for them, so NRTIC sponsored the event from the proceeds of the donation received from the Senqu-Notties Invitational Fly Fishing Event (tickets for 25 children and 2 teachers, gaining them entry into the 'wet 'n Wild' section, as well as a tour of the aquarium, and a dolphin and penguin show). uShaka arranged for a school group fee which was decidedly less, and Spar very kindly donated some drinks and chips as "pad kos" for the bus trip.

The category, presented by 'Explore SA Magazine', recognised the retreat that embraced and enhanced the local community in terms of history, architecture, people and projects as well as took steps to preserve the local heritage.
