Bush to Beach
Beach to Bush is a very popular primary school aged surf education program that offers students in regional areas of NSW an introduction to surf lifesaving, focusing on beach and surf safety along with being safe around dams and inland waterways.
Students from regional communities are often less familiar with the potential dangers of the surf, our program aims to reach those children before they head to the coast with their families.
What do students learn?
- Beach and inland water safety
- How to be sun smart
- How to spot a rip
- Where they should always swim at the beach
- What to do if they get into trouble at the beach
- The different types of marine life that can be found along the coast and inland waterways
- Why they should always read and obey the signs at the beach
- The role of lifesavers and lifeguards and how to ask them for safety advice
