Digby Area Recreation offers the Swim for Life program at the Digby Swimming Pool. The Swim for Life program is the Lifesaving Society’s learn-to-swim program that develops solid swimming strokes and skills. We incorporate valuable Water Smart® education that will last a lifetime. We offer the following modules in the Lifesaving Society Swim for Life® program:

Preschool: Give your child a head start on learning to swim. The Lifesaving Society Preschool program develops an appreciation and healthy respect for the water before these kids get in too deep. We work to ensure 3 to 5-year olds become comfortable in the water and have fun acquiring and developing a foundation of water skills. Review the Preschool content here.

Swimmer: The Lifesaving Society’s 6-level Swimmer program accommodates children 5 years and older including absolute beginners as well as swimmers who want to build on the basics. We stress lots of in-water practice to develop solid swimming strokes and skills. Review the Swimmer content here.
