Designed for children around the age of 8 years and over, the Rookie Lifeguard teaches personal survival and rescue skills.
Built into the programme are lessons in valuable survival, rescue and sports skills…all delivered in an exciting way that will get children involved and motivated. The course can run parallel to your child’s current swimming lessons at the Kingfishers Swim School in Rochford and will enhance the skills they learn in the pool. Alternatively, they may complete the course independent of lessons.
The Rookie Lifeguard programme teaches children how to swim and enjoy water safely, whether in shallow or deeper water. It is a comprehensive and exciting scheme, equipping children with lifesaving skills and builds confidence in and around bodies of water.
Children must be able to confidently swim a minimum of 25m in clothes.
