Melbourne, call it luck but we’ve been blessed with a few days of perfect temps 🌡️☀️🏊⁣
⁣
If the beach is calling your name this weekend, be sure to look out for our mates in red and yellow lifesavingvic and swim between the flags at a patrolled beach. ⁣
⁣
Always supervise children around water. Keep in mind:⁣
⏱️ 20 seconds is all it takes for a child to drown⁣
👐 always keep children under 5 years old within arm's reach⁣
👀 always keep children 10 years of age and younger in your line of sight.⁣
⁣
If you are not feeling comfortable in the water, you can alert a lifeguard to assist you back to shore by:⁣
✋ Staying calm, raising your arm in the air and waving it from side to side. This will attract the attention of a lifeguard who will be able to come to your assistance.⁣
🔋 Conserving your energy by floating on your back and staying calm. This will ensure you have the energy to remain afloat until assistance arrives.⁣
