FLIGHT CENTRE FOUNDATION HALBERG WATER SKILLS FOR LIFE

Swimming New Zealand is excited to be assisting with the Water Skills for Life initiative and that this is totally inclusive and made available to all Kiwi children. We believe the competencies have been developed so most New Zealand children can achieve them in some way or form.

Educating parents is a part of Swimming New Zealand's education advisers role. We believe it is vital that all kiwi parents know their children's true ability when it comes to skills in the water along with their water safety knowledge and awareness. There's a good chance some of our Kiwi kids can educate their wider whanau on the risks and hazards of local aquatic environments and when they should wear a life jacket.

We are proud to support the following event...

Time 9.00am - 12.00pm
