Activities for our Starfish Nippers include the traditional beach games and activities, beach running, beach flags, swimming, board skills, water familiarisation, beach, water and surf safety. We join in with other age groups for some fun relays and games. Each Nipper has a dedicated helper, we work with a ratio of 1:1 for beach activities and in some cases 2:1 for the water activities depending on the nipper’s ability. This ensures the program can be specially tailored to meet individual needs and skill levels in and out of the water, we offer positive instruction and encouragement along the way. We do have a policy which stipulates that a parent or carer must be on the beach at all times while the session is being run in case additional assistance is required.
