Hello Everyone!

We are at that time of year again, with our pool opening in just over a month! The staff at Okato pool are excited to be going back again.

I have already had parents ask and approach me about swimming lessons, and just like last year these will run between December and January for 5 weeks - the dates are still to be confirmed.

At this stage all I am after is contact details, so that when I begin putting groups together I know which families to contact.

REGISTER YOUR INTEREST TODAY!

We hope you all had a wonderful and safe Christmas 🎄Don't forget to keep an eye on the little ones in your back yard pools too, as well as the pool and beach! Just because it's shallow, doesn't make it safer!

Following the tragic drowning of a two year old boy in a portable pool in a Sydney backyard over the Christmas weekend, Royal Life Saving WA is urging parents and carers to take all the proper precautions when using these pools throughout the summer season.

Its not just the little ones we need to look out for. Adults can have accidents too, with men at higher risk.
If your tempted for a tipple over the holidays, leave your togs at home. Don't drink and drown!!

1,995 men have drowned in Australia between 1 July 2007 and 30 June 2017. 24% involved alcohol. Alcohol significantly increases the risk of drowning by impai...

With festive season upon us, we need to take extra care we are not distracted when supervising our little ones around water. This includes, the pool, beach backyard and bath tub!!
