Our Aquatic Employment Program is run in partnership with Life Saving Victoria (LSV), and provides a safe and welcoming space for young people to build confidence in the water and to develop their water safety and swimming skills.
Swimming is a great way to stay active and improve overall fitness. Regular participation helps strengthen muscles, boost cardiovascular health, and enhance coordination. Beyond the physical benefits, being in the water is known to reduce stress and anxiety, promote relaxation, and improve mood.
This program is also an opportunity to meet new people, build friendships, and feel part of a supportive community. Participants encourage one another, celebrate progress together, and create lasting social connections.
For those who are interested, it can also provide an opportunity to receive training and support to find employment as a lifeguard or swimming teacher.
