MEREDITH KING
9.00AM – 9.45AM
What are the AUSTSWIM Learning Pillars and how do they relate to you?
What about the AUSTSWIM Aquatic Service Officer (ASO) course, have you heard about this innovative and industry welcomed course?
Join us as we start the day with an update on the latest developments AUSTSWIM has to offer Teachers of Swimming and Water Safety.

ACROSS THE LIFESPAN
ALINA GRAHAM
MAKE UP POLICY FORUM - IT’S ABOUT
TIME WE HAD THE CONVERSATION!
JOY SYMONS
IMPROVE YOUR TEACHING OF
BACKSTROKE
LISA ROLLS
We all know children grow and develop at
their own pace. This session will talk about
how we need to adapt our teaching of aquatic
skills as the different rates of growth and
physical development become apparent in our
students.
Let’s face it... We all hate “make-up lessons.”
Getting children scheduled in can be a
nightmare. Often parents forget because
they are out of routine and children can
be out of sorts if they are with a different
teacher! This session will look at a number
of different “make-up” policies and also start
the conversation we, as an industry, need to
have. We will look at the pros and cons of our
“make-up” policies and what it would mean
for us as an industry, as individual businesses
and as teachers to remove “make-up” policies
all together.
Let’s get back to basics with fun skills and
drills that engage your students, encourage
good practice and develop basic skills leading
to technically sound backstroke. This session
will also include backstroke turns.
SESSION TWO
12.00PM – 12.50PM
OLD & WELL
JENNIFER SCHEMBRI-PORTELLI
SQUARE PEG ROUND HOLE
LYN O’BRIEN
BUTTERFLY FOR BEGINNERS
MARCELLE RENFORTH-FREDERICK
As consumers, ‘baby boomers’ are well educated
and seek effective and safe physical activities
that are enjoyable and challenging.
Do you have children who do not progress like
the others in the group? This session will show
a different approach for some of these “square
pegs” in your program. Could a “child-focused”
approach using innate movement patterns i.e.
symmetrical or asymmetrical movement be
more effective as a basis for teaching them to
swim? Come and experience practical ways to
teach both square and round pegs successfully
in the same class.
Butterfly seems to be the stroke some Teachers
of Swimming & Water Safety fear teaching the
most. Eliminate your fear of teaching butterfly to
your students with this step by step progression.
Enhance your knowledge to implement aquatic
programs that include skill development, a
degree of fun and achievement, water safety and
a sense of belonging.
LUNCH
12.50PM – 1.30PM
SESSION THREE
1.30PM – 2.20PM
DUTY OF CARE
MEREDITH KING
AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER
BRAD LOW
BREASTSTROKE
JUDY DICKINSON
This interactive session explores duty of care,
examining just what it means and challenging
just how well we undertake our duty of care
when conducting classes.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a
developmental disorder that is estimated to
occur in 20 people out of 10,000. Whilst it is
believed that the majority of autistic children
are also intellectually impaired, autism spans
the entire intellectual range from above average
intelligence to severe intellectual disability. This
session aims to provide teachers with an insight
into Autism Spectrum Disorder, its causes and
effects. You will be provided teaching strategies
to assist structure and implement effective
aquatic programs for children with ASD.
Are you getting frustrated teaching breaststroke?
We will examine a series of scenarios and
consider aspects of roles, responsibilities,
negligence and duty of care.
Would you like to learn how to teach
breaststroke more effectively?
Join Judy as she shares the helpful hints and
tips she has gathered after many years of
teaching this stroke.
SESSION FOUR
2.30PM – 3.20PM
MAYHEM OR MAXIMUM PARTICIPATION?
BERNIE WILSON
BEYOND THE LANE
MEREDITH KING
AQUA SMORGASBORD
JENNIFER SCHEMBRI-PORTELLI
Have you actually taken notice of how
long your swimmers spend waiting for
their turn? Have you considered changing
class formations to make lessons more
productive and fun without ignoring safety
considerations?
Australians are committed to teaching children
to swim, believing this will make them safe in
water. AUSTSWIM Teachers and swim lesson
venues have an education and learning focus
that supports and promotes this view. It’s
honest and simple, meeting community needs
and making our kids safer. But is it, are the
scales balanced?
Physical activity is universally recommended
for the maintenance of good health and
wellbeing. The aquatic environment is often
the place it all starts. AUSTSWIM Teachers
can also incorporate unique aqua activities into
lesson plans for an inclusive market – that’s
EVERY body.
By making some simple changes to your
lessons you can keep swimmers moving and
on task in a controlled productive manner.
This session aims to challenge the:
· Appropriateness and effectiveness of learn
to swim curricula
· Aims and objectives of current swim school
models
· Place of swim schools in fostering public
safety, physical health and personal
education
· Industries view of Teachers of Swimming
and Water Safety
AFTERNOON TEA
3.20PM – 3.45PM
SESSION FIVE
3.45PM – 4.45PM
WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY SKIN?
DR JIM MUIR
HOW TO SAY NO POLITELY
SUE MAYO
CPR UPDATE
RLSSQ
Working as Teachers of Swimming & Water
Safety our skin is exposed to chemicals and
harsh elements.
Whether as a teacher, parent, employer or
employee, saying ‘no’ to someone is one of
the most difficult responsibilities. Many difficult
moments may be managed easier by simply
laying out the boundaries before engaging
in a ‘learning agreement’ or ‘an exchange of
tasks’. Sounds easy? So why are there so many
difficult situations when teaching or working
with others? Whether teaching the parents,
children or both; human behaviour indicates
there will be an occasion where unacceptable
behaviour will present itself. “How to say NO
politely” is an entertaining view on classes
where possible strategies may be applied to a
teaching environment or work place. It’s all about
relationships!
It is a requirement that all staff members in the
aquatic industry update their CPR qualifications
annually. If your CPR qualification is due
for renewal why not attend this session to
re-accredit with Royal Life Saving Society
Queensland.
Join Dr Jim Muir from South East Dermatology
to discover what is actually happening to our
skin, why it is happening and most importantly,
what we can do to protect and improve it?
