"Learn to swim and behave safely in the water"

The Minister of Education and Science of the Republic of Lithuania in 2016 was guided by the activities of the swimming training project of 5 December by order no. V-1087 “Regarding the Approval of Recommendations for the Implementation of the Swimming Training Process for Pupils in Primary Education Programmes”.

In swimming lessons, students will be taught to swim and behave safely in and near the water. There will be 1220 unique participants involved in the project activities in the Fabijoniškės pool. Only second grade students of Vilnius city schools can participate in the project activities.

The target group of the project participants is second grade students - children aged eight to ten. The project must ensure that at least thirty-two practical swimming exercises are carried out. The duration of one session in the water is at least forty-five minutes. The following results will be achieved: the child will be able to float in a horizontal and vertical position, change the position of the body (fifteen seconds); immerse it under water and pull the object lying on the bottom by hand to a depth of at least 1 m; move forward by making leg movements with the board and exhaling into the water while lying on your chest (fifty meters); swim fifty meters lying on your chest or back.

The participants of the project will be provided with knowledge and practical skills for safe handling of water on and in the water. The swimming skills acquired by all project participants will be tested to determine the ability of children to swim in the twenty-five meters in the pool to three levels: Level I - without aids, Level II - with one aid, Level III - with two or more aids. The results of the children's achievements by levels are presented in the project promoter's report and communicated to the schools. After thirty-two swimming lessons, each project participant will receive a diploma indicating their swimming skills.

The project has been implemented by organisation “Active Vilnius”.
