15.01.2022 SMLSC Nippers Update We are still to finalise a start date in January 2021 however what we do know is that it will still be on a Tuesday night. Due to restrictions we will be required to stagger our start and finish times with capped numbers of between 20 and 50 nippers per age group and to cater for other beach users. We are seeking your feedback before we finalise our program with start and finish times that supports maximum participation.... If you can please click on the link (https://forms.gle/zjvGXEbAJAa3ynm19) to our short survey to assist us in our planning. I am hoping to be able to provide everyone with a commencement date in January very soon. Reminder we also have a Nipper Parent Bronze Course running in December with limited places so check your emails for further information or contact our Chief Instructor Nick Wood - [email protected] for further information.

14.01.2022 Our Youth Trivia Night is happening THIS Saturday. We’ll be testing your life saving and general knowledge with some Kahoots! Can’t wait to see you there! RSVP to MacKenzie at [email protected]

08.01.2022 Around this time last year, we were eagerly awaiting the completion of our new building. Given this, we thought we'd share the journey from the demolition of our old clubhouse to the completion of our new one!!

07.01.2022 Nippers update 2020/21: We are still in the planning stages of our Nippers program for this season and due to the ever-changing COVID-19 environment, our program will not commence until at least January 2021. This is subject to both LSV and CHO directions. What we do know is the program will be modified (ie. outdoors only), numbers will be capped for each age group and access to the clubhouse will be restricted. These measures will ensure compliance with our COVID Safe Plan ...and social distancing requirements. These restrictions mean, more than ever, we will require more parent involvement in the program. In particular, we will need more age managers, parent helpers and water safety volunteers. In anticipation of the program commencing in January 2021, we are looking to conduct a Nipper Parents Bronze Medallion course for those that are interested. This would be a great opportunity for you to meet other nipper parents and to be further involved with your nipper and support the program. Please email [email protected] if you are interested in doing your bronze medallion, becoming an age manager, parent helper or water safety volunteer this season. We hope to have further information available by the end of October regarding a potential commencement date for our program and the maximum numbers per age group. Please keep an eye out on our website, social medias, newsletter and Team App. Robbie Brain Junior Activities Manager
