Kori Water Safety Visits

At SwimMagic we love to take our friendly mascot Kori the little blue penguin out into the community and share important Water Safety messages to keep everyone in Aotearoa safe around water.

We like to visit as many Early Childhood Centres, Parent and Child groups and Schools across the country to educate and spread the word on how to be safer around water. Children need to learn at a young age the importance of keeping safer in and around water.

Kori has some very important messages to share with everyone.

  1. Adults must supervise children at all times around water
  2. Always swim within reach of an adult
  3. Learn to float on your back
  4. Always wear a lifejacket when you are on a boat
  5. At the beach swim between the flags

During our visits, Kori will add songs and story time to these important messages to help the children to remember them. Kori loves to get the children involved and have lots of fun. 

If you would like Kori to come and visit your centre or school please contact us.
