School Sport with Mrs. Rachael Croker

National Bush 2 Beach Water Safety Week

    What a great week the students have had celebrating Beach 2 Bush Water Safety Week.

    On Monday all classes had a zoom meeting with 2 lifeguards from Royal Life Saving Australia. Students learnt about how to identify a rip, the 5 steps to beach safety;

    • F – Find the red and yellow flags and swim between them
    • L – Look for and read the safety signs
    • A – Ask a lifeguard or lifesaver for safety advice
    • G – Go swimming with an adult
    • S – Signal for help if you get into trouble in the water

    Students have enjoyed scavenger hunts, colouring in competitions, livestream sessions investigating beaches and rock pools, and many more water safety valuable learning experiences.

    A HUGE THANK YOU to our very generous families who allowed us to lend gear this week to help set up our beach theme display. This will feature in our video which will hopefully be ready to be viewed early next week.
