Safety Week aims to build ongoing awareness for our young students and their families, about staying safe in and around the water.This message is not only limited to pools, but also extends to other various water environments we encounter such as beaches, rivers, dams and even bath time. With hundreds of young lives still being lost to water each year through preventable accidents, we look to continue creating safe and confident children in our students.

This pop-up week of fun, safety driven content assists children to develop a variety of skills and thinking to help keep themselves safe. By linking the theme of ‘safety’ with the water-based activities children love, we aim to drive timely education and awareness leading into the upcoming Summer season. This content will be delivered during normal lesson times for students in Seals level and above.

What to bring: A change of clothes to swim in (children in ‘Seals’ level and above will do a clothed safety swim during their lesson)

Endurance Week is a great opportunity for eligible children to challenge themselves in the Swim100, Bronze300 and Silver500 distance swims. These longer swim challenges build valuable endurance capabilities in children, making them even safer and more confident.

Endurance Week will run during normal lesson times for children in Tiger Sharks, Bull Sharks, Great White Sharks and Juniors.
