Launch Pad Enrichment Center would like to announce its new Learn to Swim Program which began on May 30th, 2012 as part of its Developmentally Appropriate Comprehensive Early Childhood Program. Ninety five percent of the enrolled students from 15 months to 4 years of age were voluntarily enrolled by their Parents to participate in weekly swimming lessons conducted by ISwim Cayman and Safety School led by Tracey Myrie with Instructors Krysten and Zack. The Instructors are certified in Swim Instruction and Coaching, as well as certified in CPR and First Aid. The program began with their individual evaluations after which children were grouped according to age and ability.
Every Wednesday the children eagerly come prepared to learn to swim with Instructors Krysten and Zack and after four weeks of intense group and individual instruction, they are proud recipients of their first swim certificates. The pool is across the street from Launch Pad and has been generously donated for our use by one of our Parents.
This Wednesday Swimming lessons program will continue throughout the summer as part of our six week Summer Camp program (July 9th to August 17th, 2012) and continue in September for the 2012-2013 school year.
Water safety and knowledge and comfort in the water is a very important and necessary skill for children in this Island and Launch Pad is proud to be a partner with the ISwim Cayman and Safety School to increase the numbers of young children in the Cayman Islands who are actively working on mastering this skill.

The Center’s primary program is the Early Childhood Education Program designed to develop and support the growth and development of children who are toddlers, two, three, and four years old in all areas: socially, emotionally, physically, intellectually and aesthetically.
LPEC’s other services include an After School Program for children in year 1, year 2, and year 3; tutoring, mentoring, parent education and community outreach; children’s savings program in collaboration with Cayman National Bank; and a lending library for children, parents and teachers.
All parents are encouraged to participate in the Very Important Partners (VIP) program, a parent enrichment program opportunity for parents to become an integral part of their child’s learning journey.
Our goal is to have all children develop a love of learning, demonstrate a positive disposition toward school, and master the requisite skills for reading and writing.
