Learn to Swim and Water Safety Program
The Learn to Swim and Water Safety Program at Monash Sport aims to familiarise participants with the aquatic environment and is designed to help participants to learn to love the water!
Our Learn to Swim and Water Safety classes are conducted by AUSTSWIM-qualified instructors. This program promotes water confidence through participation in a wide variety of aquatic activities and is suitable for participants of all ages including infants, pre-schoolers, school-aged children and adults.
The program at Monash Sport aims to extend learning outcomes in a safe aquatic environment. An essential part of our curriculum is to teach adults and children of any age to understand the dangers associated with water and more importantly how to be safe around the water.
Other learning outcomes are to increase the motor development, socialisation, water safety and stroke development opportunities for the participants attending our programs. All these skills not only assist in providing transferrable learning opportunities but also lead to confidence in learning to swim, a crucial life skill.
