The city of Kufstein has taken a significant step to promote swimming lessons. In close cooperation with local educational institutions, a program is now being introduced that makes it easier for children and young people to access swimming courses.
With this initiative, the city particularly wants to increase water safety and ensure that as many young people as possible learn to swim. This is not only important for personal safety, but also promotes awareness of responsible water use.
The offer in detail
The program is offered in various swimming pools in and around Kufstein. The courses are suitable for all ages and experience levels, from beginners to advanced. The events are not only educational but also entertaining to motivate children to learn to swim.
- Kurszeiten: Die Kurse starten in der Regel am Dienstag und Donnerstag nachmittags.
- Kosten: Eine günstige Kursgebühr wurde festgelegt, um den Zugang zu erleichtern.
- Qualifizierte Anleitung: Erfahrene Schwimmlehrer leiten die Kurse und garantieren eine sichere Lernumgebung.
In addition, special programs are set up for schools where students can acquire swimming skills as part of lessons. This enables many children who may not have had the opportunity to learn to swim without this opportunity to now take part and improve their water skills.
The City is implementing this measure in view of the current water safety situation and changing living conditions that require early swimming training. Last but not least, the numerous leisure opportunities that swimming brings with it also play a role. Access to swimming training can therefore also be seen as a contribution to active and healthy leisure activities.
Increased swimming ability among younger generations is also considered essential to minimize the risk of swimming accidents. The person responsible for education and sport in Kufstein reiterated how important it is to give all children the opportunity to learn these life-saving skills.
