In this articlae we explore what you should expect at a minimum. Key Features of Infant and Toddlers Programs At this stage of the learn to swim journey the Swim School programs should focus on water familiarisation, enjoyment and development of elementary skills required prior to independent participation Ages are from 6 months to 3 years In-water parent or carer participation Learn through play, games and fundamental movement skills What can I expect my child to learn? Getting into and out of the water safely Floating on their front and back Orientating their body using rotation skills Moving through the water using kicking and arm actions Gliding in a forward direction Breathing preparation skills Submerging under water Safety rules for participating in lessons Social skills for interacting with peers and the teacher What Qualifications should my teacher have? All Swim Teachers who are teaching infants and toddlers 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: SISCAQU027 - Promote development of infants and toddlers in an aquatic environment Parent and Carer Involvement Parents and carers are an integral part of children’s aquatic education and, at these early ages, in-water parent and carer participation is necessary not only for safety but to provide support and guidance through activities to get maximum value from lessons. 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! 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

Aquatic Facility Safety AssessmentThe Royal Life Saving Aquatic Facility Safety Assessment (AFSA) is a comprehensive analysis of the policies, procedures, operations and activities of a public or commercial aquatic facility. The AFSA is the easiest and most effective way < Back Aquatic Facility Safety Assessment Aquatic Services > Local Water Safety Planning > Safety Equipment > Aquatic Facility Safety Assessment > Facility Design Assessment > Mystery Guest Assessment > Supervision Validation Assessment > Signage Assessment > Emergency Action Plans > Operations Manuals > Aquatic Consultancy > Incident Investigation > Inland Waterway Safety Assessment Risk Enquiries Login to GSPO Overview The Royal Life Saving Aquatic Facility Safety Assessment (AFSA) is a comprehensive analysis of the policies, procedures, operations and activities of a public or commercial aquatic facility. The AFSA is the easiest and most effective way. The AFSA is a simple and effective method of assessing the level of safety and compliance within an aquatic facility. For pool owners and operators, it is a way to ensure that their facility is being managed in line with current expectations and standards. Failure to meet reasonable standards in the provision of a safe environment for the public may in some instances carry significant penalties. The AFSA can assess all aspects of the facility, including: Administration First Aid Technical Operations Facility and Pool Design Water Features and Attractions Spa, Hydrotherapy, Wave and Dive Pools Supervision Programs The AFSA question set determines compliance against the Guidelines for Safe Pool Operations (GSPO) and relevant State and National regulations and Legislation. The assessment enables the development of a detailed report and safety improvement plan. The safety improvement plan lists the level of risk associated with each non-compliance, the applicable guideline or legislative reference and provides comprehensive recommendations to address the respective issues. AFSA Benefits: Benchmark current performance against industry standards and best practice Gain independent and expert information and advice Encourage continual improvement Support the training and educational needs of key facility representatives Ensure currency with regulatory changes Reduce the likelihood and consequence of aquatic related injury and death Demonstrate the use of a formal risk management process Maintain a working relationship with the peak industry body Achieve recognition for safety practices Reduce legal risk Contact Us Royal Life Saving is active across all communities. Our members, volunteers, trainers, employees and lifesavers are found in almost all communities. Contact Us
