Terrific Tankers!

Year 6 had a fantastic morning at Whitaker Tankers today.

We learnt how to tie a reef and bowline knot, saw how radar worked and pretended to fight a fire onboard!

The Captain decided to play a trick on us when we were investigating the meaning of the flags flying at the bow of the ship. After deciphering the flags, we discovered that he was telling us a submarine might be passing by! Definitely not possible at dock gate 4!

Thank you to everybody at Whitaker Tankers for such a unique and fun experience.
