Swimming
Recreational swim is available as one of the sport options (pending pool availability).
All students must complete a swim test prior to entering the pool (with the exception of those who are pre-designated a life jacket). The test will require students to swim across the width of the shallow-end of the pool (instructors will be present in the water to supervise and assist if necessary). Any student who does not pass the test will be required to wear a life jacket, regardless of whether he/she has passed any swimming levels.
Whether a child passes a swim test is at the sole discretion of the certified lifeguard on duty.
We ask that teachers please check with their students regarding their swimming ability before the class arrives and provide all relevant information to instructors prior to the start of program.
If you require a letter of verification regarding lifeguard qualifications in order to receive approval from your school board, please email swcamps@uwo.ca
