Every Nipper needs a Junior Preliminary Swim Evaluation before participating in water-based activities. You can register for Nippers first.
What you need to do
- Download the 2026–27 assessment form below.
- Ask a qualified swimming teacher to complete the assessment. If your child doesn’t attend swimming lessons, you can arrange an assessment through your local swimming pool.
- Email the completed form to nippers@sandringhamlsc.org.au by Saturday 14 November 2026. If joining after this date, please submit it before your child’s first Nippers session.

What if my child isn’t a confident swimmer?
Children who are still developing their swimming skills are welcome in our Nippers program. Their participation in water-based activities will depend on their swim evaluation and appropriate safety arrangements.
