Swim Lessons Paused at Pender Pool

We’ve successfully hired key aquatic staff and are continuing to build the team. As new staff are welcomed and training continues, the Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) is prioritizing the development of a strong, skilled aquatic workforce to support safe, high-quality programming. As a result, registration for fall swim lessons will be postponed until the new team members are fully trained and in place. Learn More

The facility will re-open on Tuesday, September 8.

Swim Lesson Registration Guidelines
What you need to know before you register your child for swim lessons.

To help provide fair access to swim lessons, participants may enroll for only ONE swimming lesson set per season and must meet the required prerequisites for their selected swim level.

If you are unsure about your swim level, contact us to arrange a swim assessment to ensure you are enrolling in the correct level.

The SCRD reserves the right to withdraw participants who register for swim lessons without meeting the guidelines. Once a customer is withdrawn, it is final.
