Can my child take SwimSafer here?

A Pool by the Lake
Jurong Lake Gardens Pool opened on 27 April 2019 as part of the Jurong Lake Gardens redevelopment. It is a straightforward outdoor facility - no wave pool, no slides - with a 50-metre competition pool (4 lanes, 12 metres wide) and a 30-metre recreational area alongside a kiddy pool.
What sets it apart is the setting. The pool sits within Jurong Lake Gardens, one of Singapore's national gardens, so a swim comes with views of greenery and the lake. It draws a mix of lap swimmers in the morning and families in the afternoon.
It is about 12 minutes walk from Lakeside MRT. As a standard pool (not a feature pool), entry fees are lower than at Jurong East Swimming Complex (jurongeastswimming.com) and Jurong West Swimming Complex (jurongwestswimming.com), the other two Jurong pools.

Assessment days at Bukit Batok Swimming Complex: Mondays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
There are five CAMS centres in Singapore. Your coach will usually book your child into the closest one. Families can also reschedule through the CAMS Platform if the default session doesn't suit.
