The Two Oceans Aquarium once again welcomed COSATU pensioners to the Aquarium on Tuesday 9 May 2006. This is the third pensioner outing to the Aquarium to be organized by COSATU as part of the regular outings and activities which it organises for previously disadvantaged pensioners. Some 2,000 pensioners enjoyed the first two COSATU Pensioners’ Day visits and over 900 came to the Aquarium on 9 May 2006.

The Two Oceans Aquarium continually and actively pursues new opportunities to benefit previously disadvantaged people of all ages. Through these opportunities it aims to position itself as an aquarium for the community and to instill a sense of pride for and ownership of the environment - including the oceans - in all people.

The COSATU Pensioners’ Day is one such opportunity and the Aquarium is proud to be associated with this initiative and to be in a position to offer free entrance to the COSATU pensioners. This is over and above our own monthly Pensioners’ Day on which we transport 60 pensioners to the Aquarium for a day of fishy wonders and delight.
