Water Safety Holiday Programme

Drowning Prevention Auckland has just released a series of water safety programmes for the July school holidays that will run at pools around Auckland


The Splash Holiday programme is a fun and safe opportunity for children aged 8-15 to improve their water safety competence and knowledge while enhancing their swimming ability. Places are limited to 25 per day and cost $30 per child. 

Splash is now in its 10th year, and our experienced instructors provide a friendly and inclusive environment where confidence is built, and kids are encouraged to give new aquatic activities a go! 

Activities include lifejacket safety, snorkelling, bystander rescue, beach safety with safer boating and Manu safety (bombing) on offer for the older age group sessions.

Further information and registration is available on our website. Parents will need to enrol their children in the correct session based on age group (8-10, 11-15) and select the location and date that suits. www.dpanz.org.nz/community/holiday-programmes
