Pool policy

The Senneville pool is reserved for Senneville residents and their guests. We have put in place a pool registration system, in order to facilitate the identification of Senneville residents and other members of the pool.

On your first pool visit, you must show your photo ID with address. At this time, you will have the option to register in the pool user identification system and thus, you will not have to bring your identity card during future visits.

However, if you do not wish to be in the identification system, you will have the option to bring your photo ID each visit. Your photo ID card serves as a pool pass.

Remember that when you invite someone to use the pool or sponsor them, they are under your responsibility. Please register your guests at the pool table and make sure to pay their access fee.

Have a great summer!

Swimming lessons

Swimming lessons

Senneville Pool offer fully certified Lifeguard society (formely Red Cross) swimming lessons. Lessons focus mainly on developing all five strokes (front crawl, back crawl, breast stroke, elementary backstroke, and sidestroke), promotes fitness and endurance, and gives swimmers lifelong skills to safely enjoy other aquatic pursuits.

Senneville Pool offer 30 minute long swimming lessons every morning from 9:30 to 11:00, Monday through Thursday. This year there will also be morning lessons from 9:00 to 9:30 to accomodate the day camp kids.

The summer is split up into two sessions of four weeks, giving the child the chance to move up into a higher level half way through the summer. After each four week session, there are report cards for the children highlighting their strengths and areas for improvement.Due to our large number of members, we cannot guarantee that you will get your first pick of time, but every effort will be made to accommodate as many members as possible.

Swim for life

The Swim for life’s Lifesaving society program is composed of five modules :

We’ve designed the modules so they flow together seamlessly. You can program them independently – or as you can see in the Programming Flow Chart on the following page – program them all so they flow logically into each other and on into the basic lifesaving awards: Rookie, Ranger and Star Patrol.

Preschoolers move from Preschool to Swimmer based on age – traditionally around 5–6 years. Preschoolers who have completed Preschool 1 or 2, would move to Swimmer 1; if they have completed Preschool 3, 4, or 5, they would move into Swimmer 2.

Content is organized as follows:

  • Entries and exits
  • Surface support
  • Underwater skills
  • Swim to Survive® skills
  • Movement / Swimming skills
  • Fitness
  • Water Smart® education

Mandatory equipment for the Swim for Life program includes lifejackets of all sizes. Other learn-to-swim equipment such as kickboards, pull buoys and toys will expand the scope for effective and entertaining training.

Leaders

Leaders program provides a chance for young teens to get involved in the pool and learn the ropes of being a lifeguard. The program includes many activities that focus on leadership while giving the teens a club-like atmosphere where they can meet others their age and learn what it’s like to be a leader. Being older than most of the other children at the pool, the leaders are given a chance to help out with maintenance and events if they wish. 

Throughout the summer, there are special events like movie nights and fundraisers organized by the leaders to raise money for their end-of-summer outing. Every year, at the end of the summer, the leaders can use their fundraising money and either have a free trip/dinner downtown in a limo, a day at La Ronde or many other fun activities.
