The Swim and Survive program, designed by the Royal Life Saving Society Australia, is a broad, balanced program, consisting of swimming, water safety, and survival skills in preparation for a lifetime of safe activity in, on or near the water.
The program consists of three stages:
Wonder, Courage, and Active.
Age Group: 6mths – 36mths
Infants Classes with Parents/Carers in water
Using play and song, the Wonder program encourages exploration in water, reduces fear while building trust, confidence, stimulates learning, and most importantly allows enjoyment. Each lesson is structured to ensure learning skills are age appropriate, and challenging.
Age Group: 3yrs – 5yrs
Infants Classes with Parents/Carers in water
Swim & Survive Courage is about water confidence and aims to ease the transition from parents being in the water to the child being in on their own.
