Your Guide to Keeping Your Child Safe This Summer
Summer in Australia is synonymous with sunny days, time spent by the water, and joyful family memories. While enjoying the water is a beloved part of the Australian lifestyle, safety should always come first. Learning to swim is more than just an extra-curricular activity - it’s a crucial life skill that helps build confidence and ensure safety in and around water.
Creating a Safe Space for Water Safety Talks with Your Kids.
Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death among children, making water safety crucial. Teach kids safe practices based on their age: use stories and songs for toddlers, simple rules for primary schoolers, and discussions about peer pressure for teens. Make water safety an ongoing topic to empower children to enjoy water confidently and safely.

Why winter swimming is worth the effort.
Don't let the winter chill keep your kids from diving into swimming lessons! Winter is actually the perfect time to jump back in the pool. By starting now, your kids will be ready to safely enjoy all the water fun that summer has to offer.
Congratulations to our winners!
