Partners in Water Safety

In-school Presentations

Our in-school presentations provide children with an interactive, developmentally appropriate learning environment to teach them that when it comes to water – there is always risk involved.

An Njswim water safety teacher will come to your school to present interactive and storyboard presentations, complete with props that will include and inspire your students:

Recognize and understand risks associated with water activities

Identify lifeguards. Respect their roles at pools & on open water

Identify possible hazards associated with open water swimming

Develop action plans in case of a water emergency

Make decisions to keep themselves safer in and around water

While we recognize that no person is ever 100% safe, it’s our mission to develop a community of water savvy people.

We can never really be safe – but we can make the effort to be SAFER. We help to develop safer people, safer water and safer response.

Water Safety Presentations

We offer practical, in water safety awareness training and preparation for small groups such as boys scouts, girls scouts, surfing teams, camps, home owners associations and other community groups who are looking to increase their awareness and education on water safety. We are helping to make our communities stronger and safer by providing an in-water safety curriculum at our pool. We have helped several local boys and girls scouts group attain their water SAFETY badge. This program features a 1- 2 hour age appropriate pool experience for children and adults.

You Too Can Help Prevent Drowning!

Learn about Legislation Bill A-269 that will require school districts to provide instruction water safety as part of New Jersey’s Student Learning Standards for Comprehensive Health and Physical Education for grades K-12.

Introducing a water safety curriculum in our schools is a great start to give people the education and awareness needed to make good decisions in and around the water. The best way to prevent drowning is to learn how to swim.
