Children learn to swim because it’s fun and it gives them a place in which to be social, express their feelings and achieve & develop skills.
Behind all this fun & achievement lies a life changing and lifesaving essential life skill. There aren’t many sports or skills which save your child’s life but learning to swim is certainly one of them.
- Last year, 35 children died from accidental drowning, the equivalent of more than a classroom of children. Comparing this to the 5-year average, there was a huge 46% increase in the number of accidental child fatalities.
- In the last 5 years, 30% of accidental drownings on the UK occurred at the Beach, shore or coast.
From our early years swimming lessons (4yrs+), students are taught water safety which give them the skills to be safer in & around water at all times. They will be more prepared and more ready to react should an incident occur.
30 minutes a week can give your child the skills they need to be safe and secure in & around water. Enrol your child in Swim School today.
