Keep Watch at Public Pools

Kids can't help themselves around water, you need to

We ask all parents to Supervise, Restrict, Teach and Respond to keep your children safe when in, on or around the water.

Because ‘Kids can’t help themselves around water, you need to.’

Keep Watch

When implemented together, these Keep Watch drowning prevention actions help to maximise child safety around the water:

	0-5 YEAR OLDS & NON SWIMMERS Stay within arms' reach
	6-10 YEAR OLDS & WEAK SWIMMERS Be close, be prepared & maintain constant visual contact
	11-14 YEAR OLDS Maintain visual contact

Our lifeguards do a great job of keeping our pools safe, but they are not able to babysit.
