Part 11 of our educational series with Karen Baildon
Have you ever wondered why we do closed swimming weeks without developing swimmers? Well, the majority of drownings and non-fatal drownings happen with children, have their clothes and their shoes on.
We need children to feel comfortable and learn drowning prevention skills in the water with the weight of shoes, clothes and or nappies on.
That’s why our clothes swimming weeks are a vital part of our drowning prevention program.
