Swim For Life Tairāwhiti

Swim for Life Tairāwhiti’s goal is to reverse the decline in children’s swimming ability and help our region work towards a consistent record of no drowning.

Swim for Life Tairāwhiti delivers swim and survival education to over 2,800 students per year, from Manutuke to Potaka, helping them become confident and safer in the water. 

Programmes are targeted at low decile schools where parents are often unable to support extra-curricular activities such as swimming.

These programmes are important in a region such as ours which has so many aquatic based activities. They provide children with fundamental water skills to increase their enjoyment and participation in a variety of water situations.  

Donations to this fund will help them provide swimming education to those in our community that need it most.
