SWIM LESSONS Why take swimming lessons at Dovercourt? Dovercourt’s highly-skilled instructors are able to teach children proper technique efficiently and effectively, in accordance with the high standards of the Lifesaving Society. Our end-ofsession Survival Day is unique to Dovercourt and is a fun yet powerful way to teach children skills that could save their lives in real-life scenarios. Our staff undergoes extensive training and regular updates on safety, rescue situations, changes to current standards, as well as techniques for teaching. Many of our senior aquatics staff are instructor and lifeguard trainers and are a valuable resource for our aquatics team. Our leisure pool is designed to teach swimming, with unique features like warmer water, a beach entry, rope swing and shallow & deep water pods. We are proud of the quality of our swim lesson program at Dovercourt! Read more on our website: www.dovercourt.org/ enterprise/OurPool_Whatsdifferent

Their contributions over a ten year period brand the room and help fuel our expansion project.
