Now offering Swim for Life swimming lessons
Don’t forget that our swimming lessons have changed from the Canadian Red Cross to the Lifesaving Society’s Swim for Life program. To help you, we’ve created a transition chart that shows which Swim for Life level to register for based on the previous Red Cross levels. Anyone registered for swimming lessons during the Fall 2022, Winter 2023, or Spring 2023 sessions will also see their Swim for Life level on their report card.
If you’re still unsure which level to register for, please contact 311 or visit your local pool to arrange a skills assessment (public admission fees and entry requirements apply).
