Infant lessons
Royal Life Saving Society of Australia (RLSSA) Wonder and Courage
There are 6 WONDER levels and 5 COURAGE levels in the infant program.
WONDER classes for under 3 year olds are a parent and child class which require a parent in the water at all times during the class.
A parent’s confidence level is a vital part of the learning process, lessons focus on both parent and child.
WONDER classes cover activities to boost water familiarisation, water play, fun, parent and child bonding, trust in a new environment and the introduction of group activities.
WONDER 1 – 4 level classes accept a maximum of 8 children per class and are conducted in the warm water pool, water depth is 1.1 to 1.2 metres.
WONDER 5 – 6 level classes accept a maximum of 6 children per class and are conducted in the leisure pool, water depth is 60 cm to 80 cm.
COURAGE classes are for over 3 year olds and do not require a parent to be in the water.
COURAGE 1 – 5 level classes accept a maximum of 5 children per class and are conducted in the leisure pool, water depth is 60 cm to 80 cm.
