The beach has a place in everyone's story
Surf Life Saving is much more than just saving lives on the beach
A key priority for us is reaching out to all Australians through our substantial community education programs. We aim to teach all Australians how to keep themselves and their families safe at the beach.
The beach is a place for everyone
This unit and associated resources focus on delivering the key water safety message that the beach is a place for everyone to safely experience the beach, coastline and inland waterways. It also gives students an opportunity to further develop their literacy skills, address the Cross-Curriculum Priorities of the NSW Curriculum and give students to experience authentic learning by creating meaningful projects through inquiry-based tasks.
What are the key learnings?
- That the beach is a part of everyone’s story and is a place of inclusivity, energy and place to enhance health and wellbeing.
- The beach is always changing.
- Planning your students for a safe and fun beach experience with themselves, their mates and family.
- Know the beach they are going to. Know their safety plan.
- Fight the mob mentality and be self-aware of their own and their mates competency if they are in an unsafe situation on the beach.
