SwimStart is a new voucher program to support learn to swim activities for 0 to 4 year olds.

When a round is open, parents, carers or guardians can apply for a voucher valued up to $150 for their child, which can be used towards swimming lessons with a registered SwimStart activity provider.  There is a limit of 1 voucher per child per financial year.

To be eligible to receive a Voucher, a child or young person must:

1. be an Eligible Child;
2. not have been issued with a Voucher in the current round; and
3. have complied with the terms and conditions of a voucher issued under SwimStart vouchers, where the child or young person has received a voucher under a previous Round. [NB: Where the Department has sought repayment of any funds in relation to a voucher issued under previous Rounds of SwimStart for the Eligible Child, then the Eligible Child will not have complied with the terms and conditions of a voucher].
