Supervise & Watch Your Mate… – Keep Children Safe Near the Pool

It is essential that you supervise children at all times whether they are near the pool or other bodies of water. Children are naturally curious – they are drawn to water. They can easily overbalance and topple in, so supervision around water is an absolute necessity.

Ask yourself these questions?

  • When using the pool are you always within arm’s reach of any child under 5 years of age?
  • Are you aware of the dangers of leaving older children to supervise younger children in the pool?

During parties or social gatherings, do you always have a designated ‘child supervisor’ around the pool who is ready to respond?
