WWII Memorial Swimming Pool
Swim lessons are taught twice a week for six weeks for children ages 3 and up. Pre-K lessons with a parent or guardian are once a week. Lessons are instructed by certified lifeguards (First aid and CPR in addition to life guarding certification). Each lesson has two instructors.
Lessons are held at the WWII Memorial Swimming Pool in downtown North Attleboro. The two pools are outdoor pools. Lessons are held on Mondays and Wednesdays (Saturday for Pre-K) mornings. Lessons are only cancelled during heavy down pours and lightning.
If you are unsure which lesson to sign your child up for please call the office at 508 699-0145. Lessons are for North Attleboro residents.
