  1. Where is Abundant Life Baptist Church located?

    We are at 1396 Plessis Road. On the west side of Plessis Road across from Ecolé Regent Park, between Ravelston Avenue and Regent Avenue. We have a nice big parking lot in the back of the church, best place for dropping-off and picking-up your child.

  5. How do you safely take 40+ children swimming?

    Quite simply, we follow the pool rules. Including making sure those who need to are wearing PFDs, are grouped with a specific leader in ratios set out by the pool and that the lifeguard’s word is final. Beside the staff in the water we also have staff on the deck doing constant visual checks that every child is accounted for during our stay at the pool. We have a check list with every child’s name and we check off that we have seen each child, when we get through the list; we start again, for the entire time we are at the pool. That’s why we don’t go swimming till later in the week so that we know your child well enough to recognize them when they’re all wet!

  6. What does may child need to bring to Day Camp?

    Each day they will need to bring a bag lunch. We will provide two snacks each day.

    Thursday we are going to the Steinbach Aquatic Centre so a swimsuit, PFD if you wish, towel and quarter for the locker would all be good to send along. It should be noted that the pool has a rule that no cotton is allowed.

    We have plenty of toys and games for children to play with when they arrive. It would be best if they do not bring toys, games, or electronics from home as we cannot be responsible for them and we wouldn’t want them to get mixed up with the things we have here or with some else’s items.
