Swimming
Our aquatics program takes place at TFS – Canada’s International School. The swimming pool is a state of the art pool, just newly refurbished, welcoming, clean and pristine. Students have the chance to take their swimming to the next level by getting 2 hours of instructional swim for a total of 10 hours during the week. Students ages 7-12 will be assessed in part of our swimming programming, in association with the Lifesaving Society. Students will progress week by week through all of the Lifesaving Levels, having the chance to earn official certificates that count towards their future lifeguarding levels.
