ABOUT US

Drowning is a leading cause of death for children.

Water is a magnet for children,
An alarming number of children don’t know how to swim or have weak swimming ability. That is why our children have the right to appropriate and relevant swimming and water safety skills. What starts out as a safety measure can, also lead to lifetime of fitness.

Swimming is also highly recommended by occupational therapists for developing gross motor skills and co-ordination. The mental benefits of swimming for children: Enhances mental development, develops confidence, boosts social skills, support a stress-free lifestyle and overall swimming, while fantastic for physical health and wellbeing, has invaluable mental health benefits. As children grow and develop, the positive mental effects of swimming begin to align, if not exceed the physical benefits of swimming.
