Swim School

About

Roxby Link Swim School is proud to partner with Royal Life Saving by offering Swim and Survive as our core water safety education for all ages and abilities.

Swim and Survive is a fun and dynamic swimming and water safety program that focuses on the development of swimming, personal survival, basic rescue and lifesaving skills. Swim and Survive aims to provide individuals with the required skills to lead safe and active lives in, on and around water. Swim and Survive offers a participation pathway starting the journey from infants and toddlers in ‘Little Wonders’, transitioning to independent participation for pre-schoolers to develop foundation skills and then on to extending to more challenging skills increasing in endurance and complexity for primary, teenagers and beyond!

The Swim and Survive program is:

  • Backed by 125 years of Royal Life Saving’s history in water safety education
  • Well-researched and reviewed regularly to keep it up to date
  • Aligned to the National Swimming and Water Safety Framework
  • The best avenue to achieve the National Benchmarks for swimming and water safety
  • GST-free as it meets the criteria of personal survival aquatic skills
  • Above all, fun, challenging and a channel for personal achievement

Alicia Lee

Hi Everyone

My name is Alicia Lee I am the Swim School Coordinator and Aquatics Team Leader at Roxby Link, I have been a swim teacher for 9 years and teaching in Roxby for 8 years. I moved to Roxby Downs in 2013 with my husband and 2 girls and I started working at the leisure centre soon after as an instructor. We planned to live in Roxby for a few years and we are still loving this community 8 years later.

Since completing my Aust Swim Teacher of Water Safety I have also completed some extension courses Infants and babies and competitive strokes and I am also an assessor. I love the age range that I am able to teach from 6months through to adults. I love how rewarding teaching can be, seeing the progress of children from term to term and the smile it puts on their face.

I look forward to getting to know more of you throughout this years swim lessons.
