Our P5\u20137 class recently enjoyed a fantastic tennis session with Alison Murray from Active Schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pupils had great fun learning and practising a range of tennis skills through engaging games and activities. For many of the children, this was an opportunity to try something new, and it was wonderful to see everyone getting involved, developing their confidence and encouraging one another throughout the session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were plenty of smiles, lots of energy and some excellent teamwork on display as pupils worked on their coordination, movement and racket skills. Most importantly, everyone had a great time while being active and learning something new. \ud83c\udfbe\ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are delighted that Alison will be joining us again next week during our transition days, when our new P5\u20137 class will have the opportunity to take part in more tennis sessions and continue developing their skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A huge thank you to Alison Murray for all the support she provides to our school throughout the year. We are very grateful for the opportunities she creates for our pupils to experience a wide range of sports and physical activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can’t wait for the next session! \ud83c\udfbe\ud83d\udc4f<\/p>\n\n\n\n
