Aquatic Programs | 2026 Spring & Summer Guide | www.northperth.ca

Pool Admission Standards Lifeguards reserve the right to request a swim test regardless of age and revoke a swim test pass at any time if they feel it is unsafe, or may assist in injury prevention.

Admission Standards for public pools were developed by the Office of the Chief Coroner to assist lifeguards and assistant lifeguards in maintaining adequate surveillance over the whereabouts and the activities of young bathers while they are inside the pool enclosure. The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care strongly supports these recommendations to prevent injuries and fatalities. Children under the age of 10 (6 to 9 years) who are swimmers (able to demonstrate comfort in the water and pass the facility swim test) May be admitted to the pool unaccompanied.
