Conservation educators visit
local schools to teach children
to avoid high water, thin ice
CONTINUED FROM > PAGE 12
Conservation educators
provide the SWAP program at
a time of year when water-
ways pose the highest level of
risk to children. "When it gets
warmer and the spring rains
come, the snow disappears,"
Iszczuk said. "At this time of
year, in late winter and early
spring, water is cold and the
banks are slippery and stu-
dents should stay away from
rivers and streams:'
Spring water awareness
lessons help students under-
stand for themselves the dan-
gers high water and thin ice
can pose. The students don't
just listen to facts about the
dangers of water in late win-
ter and early spring. They
learn through activities that
are engaging and interactive.
Conservation educators
deliver three presentations
designed for different ele-
mentary grade -level groups -
primary, junior, and interme-
diate. The Spring Water
Awareness Program helps
students to better understand
river systems and the hazards
associated with them.
Students from Kindergar-
ten to Grade 8 enjoy educa-
tional activities designed for
their grade level. The stu-
dents learn about the dan-
gers of seasonal water haz-
ards, such as slippery stream
banks, fast -running waters,
and thin ice.
Parents, guardians, and
teachers can find some
safety -around -water infor-
mation online at abca.on.ca.
