Mushroom Season at Grootbos
Do you know your mushrooms?
Last week, Grootbos Foundation had the pleasure of welcoming soccer legend Mark Fish to our Sports Development programme. Mark met with our coaches and youth, sharing invaluable leadership lessons and insights. His presence was truly inspiring as he discussed how to use his innovative form of soccer, "Fast Footie," to engage and integrate South African youths.
Mark spent quality time with our coaching team, junior soccer players, and senior volunteer coaches at Spaces4All. The collaboration energy was palpable, and we are thrilled to announce that our coaching team is already cooking up future plans for collaboration with Mark!
In addition to his time with our sports programme, Mark and Natasha Fish also went shark cage diving with Marine Dynamics. It was a thrilling experience, presenting a unique opportunity for the "little fish" to swim with the "big fish" in the beautiful, conserved waters actively protected by the Dyer Island Conservation Trust.
