Aktive Annual Report 2016/2017 27 Greater Auckland Aquatic Action Plan The Greater Auckland Aquatic Action Plan (GAAAP) is a collaborative project that coordinates professionally delivered swimming lessons to primary school children in the greater Auckland region, ensuring the development of fundamental swimming and water safety skills. GAAAP targets schools in decile 1-6 and children in years 3-6. 2016/17 has seen Water Safety New Zealand roll out a new approach to teaching young New Zealanders water safety: Water Skills for Life. Water Skills For Life has a greater emphasis on teaching water safety skills prior to stroke and distance focused swimming skills, as well as exposure to a range of aquatic environments. Aktive has been working with Water Safety New Zealand, Swimming New Zealand and providers to roll out Water Skills For Life across all GAAAP Schools. Aktive is appreciative of the significant funding and administrative support given to GAAAP by Foundation North, Sport New Zealand’s KiwiSport, Water Safety New Zealand, Counties Manukau Sport, Harbour Sport, Sport Auckland and Sport Waitakere. 2016/17 highlights include: • 137,056 individual lessons delivered • 21,393 students received GAAAP swimming lessons • 348 teachers received training and poolside support to deliver water safety education • 220 teachers upskilled in Water Skills For Life • $580,000 renewed investment from Foundation North and Water Safety New Zealand. “Many of our students would not be able to get this valuable learning opportunity if it was not for the funding and lessons at our school. Almost all our students have gained confidence in water and have learnt to keep afloat. The organisation of the lessons and the friendly instructors kept our students motivated and they are all keen and looking forward to future lessons. During our end of year trip to Parakai Pools we are seeing more students confidently going into the water.” Kamrul Jalil, Massey Primary School “Our aspiration at Water Safety New Zealand is that every New Zealand child has the opportunity to develop water safety knowledge and survival skills. Aktive plays a huge part in enabling this and is a valued Auckland partner in managing a coordinated approach to deliver the Greater Auckland Aquatic Action Plan (GAAAP). This gives us a wide reaching platform to deliver our Water Skills or Life initiative to 5-13 year old kids within the Auckland region. It’s a great partnership and we look forward to continuing our close relationship this year for the benefit of Kiwi kids and the wider community.” Jonty Mills, Chief Executive, Water Safety New Zealand
