Eli's Story

Water safety is something every family should prioritise — because accidents can happen when you least expect them.

Enrolling your child in swimming lessons is one of the most powerful steps you can take to reduce the risk of drowning and help them grow confident in and around the water. It’s not just about learning to swim — it’s about being prepared for real-life situations.

For BlueFit Swimming student Eli, what started as a fun family camping trip quickly turned into a frightening emergency. His mum, Karlee, knows now more than ever how important those lessons have been.

In this video, she shares her personal story — the moment that changed everything — and why swimming lessons have given her peace of mind, knowing her son has the skills to stay safe.
