Royal Life Saving NSW is excited to announce that Project Harmony will be continuing into term 3 2024!  

With an outstanding response from communities across Western and South Western Sydney we have over 370 preschool children participating in swimming lessons for the first time! We are excited to continue this initiative across the winter season and prepare children and their families for a safe summer of fun in, on and around the water later this year!  

In partnership with the NSW Government and Local Governments of Western and South Western Sydney, Royal Life Saving NSW are continuing Project Harmony – a groundbreaking initiative providing 10 complimentary swimming lessons to eligible preschoolers in communities with the highest drowning risks across the state. 

Enrolments are being taken at participating pools now! To be eligible, children must be between three to six years of age, live in Western or South Western Sydney, have not participated in swimming lessons before and not yet enrolled in primary school. Families who have not redeemed their child's First Lap voucher can enrol at no cost if enrolled before the 30th June 2024. Families who have already used their First Lap vouchers, or who enrol after 30th June, can pay a one off $50 fee to access the 10 week program. 

For more information on the program and participating facilities please see our website Project Harmony | Royal Life Saving (drowningprevention.org.au) 

Multilingual fact sheets are also available on our website.
