SwimSafer/Swim Lab Syllabus
August 28th, 2010
SwimSafer is a new national water safety program that combines the existing National Survivial Swimming Award (NASSA) and Learn-To-Swim-Program (LTSP) into a progressive six-stage program. This program ensures that students learn basic swimming, survival and lifesaving skills concurrently. As with before under the NASSA, students who successfully complete the various stages of the program will be awarded certificates and badges indicating their diferent levels of proficiency.
SwimSafer in Swim Lab’s Curriculum
Over the next few weeks, our coaches will transition into a new curriculum encapsulating the SwimSafer program. This curriculum comprises five stages — stages B1 and B2 help set the foundation for our students, while stages B3 to B5 correspond directly to the various SwimSafer proficiency levels. This new arrangement means that our students will be able to obtain the necessary SwimSafer certification without having to deviate from Swim Lab’s comprehensive swimming program.
Overview of Our Program
SwimSafer Stage 1:
In this phase/term, students who are learning backstroke will move progressively into mastering survival backstroke (B3-B3.1-B3.2-Swimsafer stage 1 test). They will eventually take the SURVIVAL BACKSTROKE SKILL/BACKSTROKE TEST (SWIMSAFER STAGE 1).
SwimSafer stage 2
In this phase/term, students will go on to learn the proper techniques of swimming the breaststroke (B4-Swimsafer stage 2). Upon mastering the breaststroke, they will then proceed to take the BREASTSTROKE SKILL TEST (SWIMSAFER STAGE 2).
SwimSafer stage 3
In this phase/term, students will learn the butterfly stroke (B5-Swimsafer stage 3 test). On mastering the stroke, they will go through BUTTERFLY SKILL TEST (SWIMSAFER STAGE 3).
On completion of all three stages, students will then progress to complete stages 4 to 6 of the SwimSafer program (BRONZE-SILVER –GOLD). More information will be provided by the respective instructors/coordinators. Students who have completed the NASSA test should consult their respective coaches/coordinators for further details.
Here are the coaches who will be heading the SwimSafer BRONZE/SILVER/GOLD classes:
Hwa Chong
- Leonard Tan
- Chan U-Nice
- Fredde Ong
Jurong Country Club
- Elsie Kang
Sengkang
- Leonard Tan
- Elsie Kang
- Fred How
Students who have obtained their SwimSafer bronze and wish to take up competitive swimming can also join the SEMI-COMPETITIVE/COMPETITIVE programs @ our various centers. The coordinators will be happy to share more on this.
The timings of the SEMI-COMPETITIVE/COMPETITIVE programs are as follow:

Thank you for your support for the Tri-Series!
August 21st, 2010
Dear Swimmers and Parents,
Thank you for your support and participation in Swim Lab’s Inaugural Tri-Series Step Up Challenge swim meet.
It was wonderful for me and my team to see so many talented young swimmers participating in the meet, learning about and displaying true sportsmanship. We certainly hope that everyone enjoyed yourselves as much as we did!
Once again, The Swim Lab would like to thank you all for making this meet a success. We look forward to next year’s competition, where we expect it to be bigger and better. Till then, keep swimming!
Regards,
Gary Tan
