What's after Pre-CanSkate?

At the end of full season, skaters will receive a report card. If the Coach has assessed that your skater has completed all the skills required for Pre-CanSkate, your skater is now welcome to register for CanSkate. Once a skater has completed Pre-CanSkate, there is not an age restriction For example, if a skater is 4 years old and passed Pre-CanSkate, they can register for CanSkate (as long as Pre-CanSkate was completed at OSC). 

If your skater has completed the skills before mid-season, the coaches will look to transition your skater directly onto the CanSkate session and you will be contacted with more information. As Pre-CanSkate is 30 mins and CanSkate is 45mins, additional program fees and a different session time may apply (classes are prorated and fees would be approximately $20 or lower).
