Best swim lesson hack in Vancouver - the awesome Pacific Swim Academy

3/26/2024

 
Picture
​Swim lessons in Vancouver are notoriously hard to get into and this swim club starts kids with no swimming experience in their “green” level in shallow end of pool. Many Tennyson kids swim with the Pacific Swim Academy (PSA). 

PSA is now accepting registrations for their Green and Blue levels. Kids do not need to have prior swimming lessons or experience. They need to be grade 3/going into Grade 3, coachable and able to receive instruction in a group setting. 

Join other Tennyson kids for excellent swim training and a friendly environment at PSA. Various times at several pools: Lord Byng, Kerrisdale, Vancouver Aquatic Centre.

There is also a lifesaving sport program for more experienced swimmers looking for more skills and opportunities. Check it out on their website.

Valhallan E-Sports Spring Break Camp

3/6/2024

 
Valhallan ESports Training, are proud to say that we are the first ones in Western Canada to bring the world of structured youth e-sports training into our community. Esports have emerged as one of the most powerful avenues for skill development, teamwork, and personal growth among students. Being the first ones to profess this in our community, we are dedicated to providing a structured and educational platform for students to not only enhance their gaming abilities but also develop essential life skills. 

Our week-long camps include 15 hours of instruction from experienced coaches. Each day, players will learn important in-game skills to improve and level up their play while also learning teamwork, communication, and building confidence - all through fun gaming activities and competitions.

This Spring Break, we are going to be running 2 camps:
  1. Gamer’s Club: in this camp, players will learn and compete in all the gaming titles that we offer at Valhallan. March 18th – 22nd 1PM-4PM. 
  2. Fortnite Club: in this camp, players will get intensive training and compete in Fortnite; one of the hottest titles in youth gaming today. March 25th – 29th 1PM-4PM.

A very special Spring Break Camp

3/6/2024

 
Hi families, our names are Molly Brittain and Callia Enderton. We are 13 years old and currently attend Prince of Wales Secondary School and Kitsilano Secondary School. (We are alumni of Tennyson) 

Over spring break we will be running a four day, half day camp from March 26th to 29th at Callia’s house in Kitsilano. This camp is for kids ages 4-9 and it will be a blast! We will play games, go on walks, there will be fun themes and so much more! We have limited space so please contact us as soon as possible if you are interested. The cost is $80 per kid per day including lunch and they can participate for 1 to 4 of the days. Currently we are trying to raise money so that we can participate in a 10 day community service program through an organization called Global Leadership Adventures:  https://www.experiencegla.com/ 
All of the money from this camp will be going towards that adventure. 

If you have any  question please feel free to reach out at [email protected] or [email protected] 

Callia is also available to look after children in the first week of spring break as well. Reach out to Callia for the first week, even for just a few hours. 

Thank you for spending the time to read our message and we hope to see you and your child at camp!
