The Friends of Sherbrook Pool KidSwim program provides free swimming lessons to children and youth (ages 6 – 14) in the West Central neighbourhood who may not otherwise take part in swimming programs. The program aims to increase water safety in an accessible, welcoming environment. KidSwim is offered two to three times a year, with each session accommodating roughly 100 participants.
“I am very happy to say that you have taught the children more confidence by providing an easy and fun way of learning to swimming. I myself would never have been able to afford swimming lessons for 3 children at a time so for the opportunity to be free was amazing to us! Not only did the children make friends with in their swimming class, I was able to make friends with some of the other parents while we watched our children swim. We even bump into our new friends around the neighborhood, it really gives us the a sense of community. We are grateful.” – Fall 2018 KidSwim Family
