Long service awards 2022 - thank you to our family!

17 March, 2022 - Blog

Everything we do at the Two Oceans Aquarium is made possible by the incredible contributions of our passionate staff and volunteer team members. Once a year, we take the opportunity to thank our long-serving team members with a special event - thank you for everything you do!

The morning kicked off with a short message from Two Oceans Aquarium CEO Michael Farquhar, General Curator Tinus Beukes and Two Oceans Aquarium Foundation Executive Chairperson Ann Lamont, highlighting the amazing things our team has been able to accomplish over the past tumultuous two years - and what we can accomplish going forward together. But, as much as we love our leaders, the real stars of the day were the amazing staff and volunteers who received awards:
