Learn to Swim Gift Vouchers

Learn to Swim Gift Vouchers - Give the Gift of Life  

The Aquatic Safety Training Academy (ASTA) in Seven Hills is excited to announce new Learn to Swim Gift Vouchers available for purchase. These Gift Vouchers are for children to learn to swim in the Accredited Swim and Survive program at the ASTA and are a perfect gift for young children.  

The 2011 Royal Life Saving National Drowning Report revealed that there are still too many drowning deaths in children aged 0-4 years. The report highlighted that there were 42 drowning deaths in the 0-14 year age group which is particularly concerning as any drowning death is a tragedy.

"It's been a horror year in the past 12 months for drowning deaths and a real wake up call. We urge the community to be vigilant because there's such a massive impact on all the parents, relatives and friends left behind after each drowning tragedy," said David Macallister, CEO, Royal Life Saving NSW.  

Even more concerning is the fact that one in five children will leave primary school with no ability to swim and children in the 5-14 age bracket were most at risk. The problem has now become a "ticking time bomb", impacting families and communities across the country in years to come and putting further pressure on drowning rates. Parents make a false assumption that secondary schools will fill this gap in swimming ability, but many high schools don't teach swimming.

The Gift Voucher costs $145.00 and can only be used at the ASTA for a full term of Learn to Swim lessons (approximately 10 weeks).

"These Gift Vouchers will give the gift of life," added Mr. Macallister. "Children will be able to learn to swim which will give them the skills and knowledge to stay safe in and around aquatic locations."   Water familiarisation is extremely important and all children should learn to swim to keep safe and reduce the risks of drowning.

The best part is that the Gift Vouchers can be purchased by anyone and are a perfect gift idea for grandparents, friends and relatives. Simply purchase the Learn to Swim Gift Voucher and give the greatest gift of all- The Gift of Life.  

For more information on the Learn to Swim Gift Vouchers or to purchase one, please call the ASTA on (02) 8814 8637.
