Upper secondary: age 14-18
Explore our comprehensive suite of water safety teaching activities and learning resources, aimed at older secondary school and college learners.
These activities have been put together to build on young people’s existing water safety knowledge.
They create opportunity for discussion through tasks such as:
- planning a water safety campaign
- planning and assessing risk before a river, lake or beach trip
- quizzes and debates about identity and influence.
The Rewind workshop builds familiarity with vital water safety messages – with additional activities to choose from – depending on what’s most relevant for your class or group.
