Calling all English Language Schools, Peak Tourism Bodies and Tour Operators... Get Your International Visitors, Tourists and Students Involved in The Aqua English Project Programs Today, Here Are Three Reasons Why: Over 8000 international visitors, students and tourists have participated in programs designed by The Aqua English Project. 7/10 international visitors need assistance when swimming.... 5 out of these 7 will attempt to engage in beach and aquatic related activities in Queensland despite not being able to swim. All participants in The Aqua English Project speak English as a second language, and express a strong desire to understand Australia's aquatic environment and its associated cultural English. Calling all Settlement Services and Not For Profit Organisations, Government Bodies and English Language Schools... The Aqua English Project has determined that 9/10 refugees and new arrivals cannot swim and have a limited understanding of water safety which is further exacerbated by limited English comprehension. There is now an opportunity for collaboration to fix this problem... engage your organisation and clients in a unique project with real outcomes today.

http://www.ntnews.com.au/article /2011/05/03/229411_ntnews.html The Sudanese Community in Darwin is still mourning the loss of a five year old boy who drowned at a water park. Unfortunately, this is another person from a culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) background to add to Australia's drowning statistics. The Aqua English Project has been shouting solutions to the increase in CALD drowning statistics for over six years now....how many more deaths before the government decides to listen?
