SHARK CONSER V ATION I N SOUTH AFRICA
Take a two-week trip that you will never forget as a volunteer with sharks on a beautiful stretch of South Africa’s coastline. Head out to sea to witness one of the world’s most powerful (and most misunderstood) creatures on this inspiring project, enjoying watching them from both above and below water.
The DAY-BY-DAY schedule
Day 1: Arrive in Cape Town on a Sunday. You will be collected from the airport and spend your first night in a guest house in the city center.
Day 2: You will be collected bright and early from the guest house and taken down to the project. The drive takes about 90 minutes. You will receive a welcome and head out to sea to witness your first sharks!
Day 3+: Most days you will be out on the boat with the sharks, depending on weather. Help out with the full range of tasks on the boats, and in conservation initiatives on land too.
Last day: On the final day of your project you will be taken back to Cape Town for your onward travel.
The price is £ 829, including the voluntary work programme with accommodations, airport transfers, one night in a guest house in Cape Town, breakfasts daily and lunches when on the boats. Your trip can be extended at a cost of £375 per week.
It is an amazing experience! Some volunteers planned to stay for 4 weeks, extended to 6 weeks and still didn’t want to come home. If you’d like to chat about this holiday or need help, we’re very happy to help.

Childhood obesity puts kids at risk for cardiovascular disease，bone and joint problems，sleep apnea，and potential social and psychological problems. 4
Of course，the CDC recommends healthy lifestyle choices—healthy eating and physical exercise. 5 That is to provide a safe and supportive environment where healthy lifestyle choices can be made.
What don’t kids need？ 6 Too much focus on overweight leads toward more weight gain.
A new data analysis of two studies found that children whose parents considered them to be “overweight” tended to gain more weight over 10 years than children whose parents considered them “normal weight”．Children whose parents labelled them as “overweight” had a negative self-perception about their bodies.They were engaged in more attempts to lose weight. 7 The clear message from this study is that dieting is more likely to lead to weight gain，not weight loss，in both children and adults.Psychology researchers Eric Robinson and Angelina Sutin argue that the stigma of being labelled overweight as a child might actually gain weight in the future.
8 For the study，children’s height and weight were measured at age 4 or 5，and parents were asked to describe whether they thought the children were best described as underweight，normal weight，overweight or very overweight.When the children were 12 or 13，they used images to best depict what they perceived their bodies to look like and were asked whether or not they engaged in any dieting behavior.Height and weight measurements were taken again when the children were 14 or 15 years old.
A．Labels and pressure around weight and weight gain.
B．Left untreated，these problems can continue into adulthood.
C．They also point out another important way to keep kids healthy.
D．The researchers cannot be certain about what is driving.
E．They analyzed the data from a study of Australian children.
F．But it actually contributed to weight gain over the 10-year period.
G．A number of mothers in this study suffer from depression and anxiety.
