Hunter and Chelsea Fellingham like going to the beach and they may enjoy it even more after learning to swim at Whanganui's Splash Centre.
Hunter, 7, and his sister, Chelsea, 5, were presented with a year's learn-to-swim vouchers at an assemby at Tawhero School on August 27.
Their nana, Sue Fellingham, was there to watch.
"I think it's fantastic. If I had time I would have taken them [for swimming lessons] because I think it's very important for them to swim. They do like swimming."
Tawhero acting principal Jacki Boyle is confident the children's mother will take them to the lessons. She said they will be especially good for tiny Chelsea, who has some mobility issues.
