 LEARN TO SWIM PROGRAMS The Maryborough Sports and Leisure Centre is proud to be a Swim and Survive Partner, working with Royal Life Saving to make communities safer around water. As part of our Partnership, we offer Swim and Survive as our core water safety education program for children. Swim and Survive is a broad balanced swimming and water safety program of Royal Life Saving that is aligned to the National Swimming and Water Safety Framework. Swim and Survive focuses on swimming, personal survival skills, basic rescue and water safety knowledge to provide children with solid foundation skills to safely enjoy a lifetime of aquatic recreation. Swim and Survive provides a pathway for ongoing learning and development and is designed to keep children engaged, actively learning and most importantly, having fun along the way. The program is broken up into 3 stages: Wonder: A water familiarisation program for parents, carers and children aged from 6 months to 36 months. Courage: A program that builds water confidence for preschool school aged children between 3-5 years. Active: A swimming and water safety program for school aged children between 5-14 years. MSLC offers group based and private swimming lessons for children aged 6 months and older and 1:1 swimming lessons for Adults. Swimming, like any other physical activity, is based on development levels and needs to be practiced and re-enforced continually. Apart from the health and safety benefits of swimming, lessons also enhance social, emotional and physical well-being. At MSLC, we are an AUSTSWIM, Swim Australia and Royal Life Saving Association registered facility and all classes are taught by AUSTSWIM qualified instructors with assessments conducted on an ongoing basis to ensure your children are in the appropriate classes based on their own individual skill levels. Lessons are run on a term basis that mirrors school terms and payments can be made via weekly direct-debit or as an upfront advanced payment. Our team of Learn to Swim Instructors strive to make every lesson fun, but most importantly to be continually progressing your child in accordance with our course structure, based on Swim and Survive from Royal Life Saving Society (Australia).
