Summer and all its swimming are fast approaching. In order to always push back the frightening statistics around drowning, a day of education and awareness of good aquatic practices took place on June 26, 2019.
Knowing how to save yourself and how to swim is even more essential at this time of year. In France, drowning is the second leading cause of death among children under 4 (Santé Publique France figures). If we work together to promote learning to swim, we can improve this frightening statistic and make the water wonderful for everyone!
World Water Safety Day will be an opportunity to raise awareness of the importance of training in the aquatic environment for the development of safety.
In 2012, USA Swimming Foundation and SwimWays (our event partner) launched “Learn to swim day” in the USA with the aim of educating parents and children about water safety and the importance of learning to swim.
This year, Swim Stars and SwimWays are pooling their expertise to launch World Water Safety Day in France on June 26.
However, learning to save yourself and learning to swim should be done at all times – there’s no day to be safe in the water!
SwimWays and Swim Stars will continue to work daily to promote water safety and develop survival skills.
Discover the S.A.F.E. prevention program launched by Swim Stars, currently being rolled out in schools.
Où prendre des cours ?
I always bathe with an adult
I don’t open safety gates
I stay away from the edge so I don’t fall
I’m learning the reflexes that will save me if I fall into the water:
I get on my back
I tap my feet
I cling to the edge
I cry for help
If anyone needs help, I’ll get a grown-up right away.
If there is no adult, I pick up the phone and call for help: SAMU = 15
I never go in or near water to rescue someone, because I might fall and need help myself.
When it rains or storms, I stay out of the water.
I’m careful around rivers and at sea, because there are currents and waves.
I only bathe with the permission of an adult I trust.
