UNDERSTANDING PRE SCHOOL LEARN TO SWIM PROGRAMS UNDERSTANDING PRE SCHOOL LEARN TO SWIM PROGRAMS t is important for Parents to understand the benefits and what to expect with their childs pre school Swimming and Water Safety Program. In this articlae we explore what you should expect at a minimum. Key Features of Pre School Programs At this stage of the learn to swim journey the Swim School programs should focus on the development of confidence and competence in a range of foundation swimming and water safety skills that will be built upon in the later stages. Students will become familiar with the water and by the end of this stage have the ability to perform basic skills independently. Ages from 3 years to 5 years Independent participation Learn and develop fundamental movement skills Transition level for less confident What can I expect my child to learn? This stage provides opportunities for students to explore and learn about moving in and under the water. The content provides a basis to develop knowledge and skills for students to safely enjoy the water in a supervised environment. It provides opportunities to identify dangers inherent in a range of aquatic environments but specifically the home. In addition, the content enables students to explore the people who are important to their safety and to develop a basic understanding of the importance of calling for help and self-preservation in an aquatic emergency. It enables students to develop and practise swimming and water safety skills through structured activities. Learning Outcomes By the end of the Pre School a student should be able to recognise and follow basic safety rules in an aquatic environment, perform a range of fundamental skills and recover to safety from a simulated accidental entry. Specifically this includes: Identifying and describing where water can be found in locations at or near the home Identifying an emergency and actions to help Describing and following rules for safe behaviour in aquatic environments at or near the home Entering and exiting shallow water unassisted Floating and recovering to a standing or secure position Submerging the body and moving through an obstacle Moving continuously for a distance of 5 metres Performing a survival sequence What Qualifications should my teacher have? All Swim Teachers who are teaching Pre School children should hold a unit of competency which is nationally recognised from the Sport, Fitness and Recreation Training package. Upon successful completion of all assessment requirements, candidates will be issued a Statement of Attainment for the following unit: SISCAQU008 Instruct water familiarisation, buoyancy and mobility skills SISCAQU009 Instruct water safety and survival skills SISCAQU010 Instruct swimming strokes SISCAQU002 Perform basic water rescues Parent and Carer Involvement Parent and carer involvement is a massive factor for children’s enjoyment and engagement in the learning process as well as their skill progression and achievement. The best way to do this is to be actively involved and get wet! Preschool age children who have been participating regularly in swimming lessons or who have progressed from infant and toddler lessons, can now participate independently with the teacher. Preschool age children love showing off their skills throughout lessons so even though parents and carers are not in the water, they have an important role to play in acknowledging small achievements and providing encouragement and emotional support. You as a Parent should also be receiving a range of safety information to help understand and educate your child. This includes such things as: Statistics and Facts of Child Drowning Child Drowning Strategies Parent / Carer Supervision and Common Distrations The important of restricting access in and around the home Bath Safety How to Perform CPR

NGADYUNG NGADYUNG History NGADYUNG is the word used by the traditional land owners in the ACT region – the Ngunnawal People – to describe water and various activities associated with it. Royal Life Saving ACT first established “Ngadyung” with funding from the ACT Health Department in 2007. Ngadyung is Canberra’s only dedicated Aquatic Recreation Program for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families and provides free access to the RLSSA Swim and Survive program for children in the local community who are otherwise at risk of missing out on formal water safety and survival education.

Ages from 5 years to 12 years Focus on personal survival, water safety and lifesaving to complement strong swimming skills Active practise, activity, and scenario-based learning Progressions to achieve National Benchmarks and beyond What can I expect my child to learn? This stage provides opportunities to develop greater proficiency across the learning areas and to increase endurance levels. Students learn the different swimming and survival strokes and when and how they can be modified for different situations. Students will expand their survival skills through combining floating, sculling and treading water, using lifejackets and learning strategies they can use when they or others experience difficulty in the water. Students develop greater awareness of dangers and the ability to identify hazards inherent in a range of aquatic environments. Students will explore the principles of rescue including selfpreservation and are introduced to non-swimming rescues and how to respond to an aquatic emergency in any environment. This stage enables students to develop knowledge and skills to safely enjoy the water. They will start to develop an understanding of their personal strengths and limitations in aquatic survival and lifesaving skills. Learning Outcomes By the end of this a student should have developed a positive attitude toward learning swimming and water safety. They should be able to identify safety rules in a range of aquatic environments, perform a range of personal survival skills including a survival sequence simulating an accidental entry in an open water environment.Specifically this includes: Understanding and respecting rules for a range of aquatic environments Demonstrating entries and exits for a range of environments Floating, sculling or treading water for 2 minutes and signalling for help Performing a surface dive swimming underwater, searching to recover an object from deep water Swimming continuously for a distance of 50 metres Responding to an emergency and rescuing a person using a non-swimming rescue technique Performing a survival sequence What Qualifications should my teacher have?

CULTURAL COMPETENCE CULTURAL COMPETENCE The Cultural Competence Program is directly aimed at staff working in the aquatic and community recreation sector. It is designed to enable workers to gain a better, broader and deeper understanding of the needs of communities from other countries when it comes to attending an aquatic facility, accessing a public swimming pool and being involved in a formal swimming program. For many people from diverse cultures and backgrounds, these seemingly simple interactions can be daunting. Preparedness of the aquatic sector will help deliver a positive experience at the pool…one which results in a fun, friendly and safe experience. Completing the program will ensure aquatic sector staff gain practical skills and cultural-specific knowledge that they can apply at the workplace and in everyday life. On top of this, being a Culturally Qualified Centre can assist your Aquatic Centre to attract new markets as well as meet growing governance and community service obligations.
