"Nippers" is an activity-based program run to educate young children about surf safety and awareness when visiting a beach or aquatic environment. The nipper program also offers the participants the opportunity to meet a new set of friends whilst they are being challenged in activities controlled within a learning environment. Through a fun and enjoyable delivery from our qualified instructors nippers are encouraged to learn about lifesaving. In addition to gaining vital surf safety and awareness skills the nippers learn basic carries, first aid and resuscitation skills. For those nippers interested, the program also introduces the competitive side of surf lifesaving. The nipper program is held during the summer period on Sunday mornings from 8-45am to approx 10.30am. The season usually starts in October after school holidays and lasts until the Easter school holidays, with a break over the Christmas period.
