Drowning is the leading cause of accidental death for children 1 \u2013 4 (more than motor vehicle accidents) and it is the second leading cause for children 4 \u2013 9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Five times as many children, although rescued, are hospitalized, many with life changing disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yet fewer than 1% of parents list drowning as their major concern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Drowning happens silently and quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Supervision is critical but swim lessons are as well. A child who knows how to float on his back is breathing, can be seen and can make noise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We at British Swim School agree with Parents United to Prevent Drowning \u2013 \u201cNot one more\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At British Swim School we teach in a warm, nurturing and fun way. We want kids to be safe. We also want them to love swimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
