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.
