Learning to Swim at Nelson South

Summer time is swimming time, but unless the young ones can really swim, summer time can also be danger time near the water. The Nelson South Swimming Club, like hundreds of similar clubs throughout New Zealand, endeavours each year to teach the youngsters how to swim, and instruction was being given when we called at the pool. The demand to learn was tremendous, more than 200 enrolments being mede.
