Little Wonders Explorers
Little Wonders Explorers is a safety and water familiarisation program for children from 4 to 12 months of age. Your child will experience the water through fun and exploration-based play and each week you will be provided with water safety education to ensure your little wonder is safer around water. If you’re looking for an activity to do with your child that promotes sensory development come down and join the fun. Times for Little Wonders Explorers classes can be found HERE.

Swim and Survive
The Eltham Leisure Centre has partnered with Royal Life Saving to provide our community with the Swim and Survive program. The program has been updated to align with the recently released National Swimming and Water Saftey framework. Swim and Survive is a comprehensive swimming and water safety initiative that seeks to increase the swimming and water safety skills of all Australian children in order to prevent drowning and increase participation in safe aquatic activity. Learn to swim, swimming lessons and infant aquatics are all terms commonly used across the aquatic industry for programs that seek to build swimming skills Swim and Survive is all of these, but most imporSetantly it ensures that the essential components of personal survival and water safety are provided, in addition to a process of developing strong and effective swimming technique.  

Infant, Pre-School and School Aged Classes Each program is structured into skill strands that ensure a balanced, comprehensive instructional approach to a child's aquatic education.

Infants - 12 to 36 months A water familiarisation program for parents and their children aged 12 to 36 months.
