After enduring a recent nervous breakdown, Jan and her

George. Jans recovery soon takes a turn for the worse due to

Instructional Information
What to Bring for Lessons

Swimsuit, towel and goggles if needed or preferred. If you have a progress


card from a prior swim lesson, please bring it with you. This allows the
instructor to have a better idea of the skills that need to be worked on.

Parents Day
For the Fall session join us during the 5th lesson. Watch your children
from the pool balcony or lobby, and speak with the instructor at the end
of lessons. If you visit, please remember to remove your shoes before
walking through the showers and onto the pool deck.

What Level is My Child In?


If you are unsure what level your child is in, screening is available during
public swim times when it is not busy. Screening is free. If you stay to
swim the public swim fee applies. Please speak to the Head Guard on
duty about screening for class levels. Admission Standards (pg.58) apply
and may require a parent/guardian to enter the water with a child being
screened, based on the age and/or ability of the child.

During Swim Lessons
Children and adults are not permitted to wait on the pool deck. For those
waiting for a swim program to begin, please stay in the change room
until 3 minutes prior to the start time. Please stay with your child until
they are with their instructor. Children are not permitted to wait on deck
unaccompanied by an adult. Experience has proven that children perform
at their best without additional on-deck distractions.

Instructor Request
Due to the overwhelming response to swim registration, we are unable
to accommodate instructor requests.

reschedule missed lessons. If you miss the last lesson, you may pick up
your progress card at the facility where the lessons took place.

What to Expect from Swimming


Lessons
Developing swimming skills requires a lot of patience and positive
feedback in order to be successful. We encourage you to talk to your
child about their lessons. Make sure that you have realistic expectations
and your child feels no pressure to complete a level. You both should
acknowledge the importance of completing the skills taught during each
lesson at a pace that is suitable for your child - swimming lessons are a
long term progression.
