H20 Aware Education
H20 Aware water safety skills and messages are incorporated through preschool games and activities that will teach little ones the basics of being safe in and around water while being sure that they are always within arms-reach of a parent or guardian.
How are Dolphins evaluated?
Swim Academy's programs are not designed to be pass or fail but rather a continuous journey of progressions that ensure a child is constantly improving at their own personal developmental pace. Dolphins participants are continually evaluated and can achieve skills within the next Dolphins level so they are never ‘locked’ into one level.
