Level 1: Learn-to-Swim Session

Swimming is not only a great way to stay healthy and fit—it’s also a vital life skill, especially in a place like Kamloops, home to over 100 lakes and rivers just an hour’s drive away.  

Many students at TRU want to enjoy these outdoor water activities—but not everyone knows how to swim. That’s why the TRUSU Services Committee has partnered with the Canada Games Aquatic Centre to offer Learn-to-Swim lessons exclusively for TRU students! 

Session Outline:

The October Learn-to-Swim Session will be a 5-weeks long (10-lessons) program and will cover the basics of swimming and pool safety protocols. The program starts on October 09th and runs until November 13th in the Canada Games Aquatic Centre within the Tournament Capital Centre.

Registration Options

There are two cohorts available to students with a max capacity of 6 participants in each cohort. Each participant can register in one cohort only. Complete schedule for each cohort is listed below.  

Note that participants need to attend all 10 lessons to have a complete Learn to Swim experience. Please do not register if you cannot attend all the lessons as deposit are non-refundable. 

Registration and Fees:

Registration can be completed below. There is a $50 deposit per participant and spots are available on a first-come-first serve basis. Students who attend all 10 lessons will get a full refund of their deposit at the end of the program. Any student who misses the first lesson will lose their spot, and it will be offered to the next person on the waitlist. No refunds will be provided. 

Registration closes when both cohorts have reached their maximum capacity. Participants are responsible for arranging their own swimming gear. Strictly no refunds if a participant does not or is unable to attend. 

So don’t miss your chance and register today.
