I've lived in Langford for over 30 yrs. I'm a mother of 2 and have a grandson. As a daycare provider, this summer we have totally enjoyed the West Shore pool. It's a great place to keep my kids active through the school year and summer holidays. It has clean large change rooms & a great viewing area, and a big pool with lots to keep them busy.

The pool offers the rope swing, the running mat, swim toys, diving board and waterslides.

The lifeguards are great and help to make it fun. I am comfortable knowing they are safe and are having a great time just being kids. My kids really enjoy the pool and the staff are always so kind to them. I would like to thank the wonderful staff of the West Shore pool. The kids say you ROCK and give Juan de Fuca a two thumbs up!

– Sincerely, Rena

SKATING LESSONS Described as an early specialization sport, learning to skate is the first step in developing the next hockey player or figure skater. Our NCCP trained instructors develop engaging lesson plans that help your child develop the necessary skills of skating. These skills will improve your child’s physical literacy and help to develop other sport specific and fundamental movement skills.

The Greater Victoria Active Communities Learn to Skate Program is a regional initiative of seven municipalities of Greater Victoria. This program is streamlined and designed so that any pre-school or school age child can have their accomplishments transferred from one center to another.

This is a badge incentive program that emphasizes the importance of comprehensive feedback through a report card. Our Skate Team Leader is on the ice during all lesson times and can answer questions regarding lessons and your child’s skating progress.
