    Tragically, water safety has never been more front of mind for many of us living in Victoria. Already this summer (since 1 December 2023) we have seen 20 lives lost to drowning – which is 18% more than the 5-year average. These figures are concerning and provide a timely reminder that water safety knowledge is essential for everyone living in Victoria.

    Life Saving Victoria’s Diversity and Inclusion team organised a practical beach excursion, designed for low-non swimmers to deliver interactive and educational water safety programs for international students. Their Diversity and Inclusion team are specialists in educating people new to Australia and deliver these programs to over 20,000 culturally and linguistically diverse participants annually.

    Please RSVP as spots are limited
