Heath and safety
Its very important that all children have a good understanding of health and safety, this can be covered by a variety of subjects including physical education.
At Lagoon Watersports we work in an ever changing environment that we have to constantly manage in able for it to be a safe learning environment.
We encourage children to recognise hazards and adapt to them in a safe and sensible manner. We are also happy to share our knowledge of risk management with the students.
We are inspected by the RYA(sailing,windsurfing, and powerbaoting), BSWS (wakeboarding), BSUPA (paddleboarding) AALA, and the MCA.
 
Risk Assessments
All of our risk assessments have been written based on our 19 years experience of delivering children’s sailing and windsurfing sessions.
