Learn to Swim Scholarships
Have you noticed or heard about the reduction in the number of pre-school and primary school aged children who cannot swim. Swimming lessons for Primary School Children are no longer mandatory - and there were 19 deaths in Queensland last year from drowning. The Government has introduced a voucher scheme for Primary school children but poorer families who would like their children to swim still cannot afford to send them. There is also a need for pre- schoolers to learn to swim. The Rotary Club of Caloundra aims to make a number of places available for needy children to learn to swim.

The drowning of a child is preventable. Learning to swim ensures your child will not be one of these horrible statistics.

Cost should not be a factor in preventing a child to learn to swim, this scheme will help those most in need and provide them with the necessary water skills
