Stay Safe Around Water This Summer The summer holidays are a wonderful time to enjoy paddling pools, swimming pools, beaches and days out near rivers or lakes. Please take a few moments to remind children how to stay safe around water. Children should always be closely supervised Never swim alone or enter open water without a responsible adult Choose lifeguarded beaches and recognised swimming areas Check signs, flags, weather conditions and tide times Remember that open water can be much colder and deeper than it appears If you get into difficulty, stay calm, lean back and float In an emergency, call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard at the coast The RNLI has useful water safety advice and family resources available here: https://rnli.org/water-safety Please help us ensure everyone enjoys a happy and safe summer. #WaterSafety #SummerSafety #FloatToLive #SpilsbyPrimaryAcademy
