About Nippers
Our Nipper program has been running for over 30 years, and offers a fun and active lifestyle choice for children between 5 and 13 years, as well as a solid base for learning important surf lifesaving skills. Our junior lifesavers in training are taught everything from sun and surf safety, to beach sprints and board paddling, all the way to life saving skills such as CPR and water rescues. We aim to provide our nippers with the confidence, skills and understanding of the beach and surf environment. We are highly focused on providing an environment that is fun, inclusive, family-friendly and focussed on developing our nippers into our future lifesavers. While our weekly activities focussed around the nippers – it’s not just about the kids! Our program encourages parents to get involved, whether it’s helping with teaching beach activities to the kids or gaining your Bronze Medallion and becoming a valued volunteer lifesaver yourself.
