History with Dr Grant Morris

Today historian Dr Grant Morris looks at the history of Surf Life Saving in NZ. Many New Zealanders are returning from a holiday at a NZ beach. Aotearoa has 15,000kms of coastline. Keeping us safe in the water is the job of NZ's 13,000 Surf Lifeguards from our 71 Surf Life Saving Clubs. Today Dr Morris talks about this history and reflects on his own involvement in surf life-saving.
