Anyone for tennis?

On Monday we held the Great Gaddesden School Tennis Day to mark the start of Wimbledon fortnight.

I had the pleasure of teaching every child from Reception to Year 6 throughout the day. The children were split into year groups so that every child had the opportunity to play tennis on a real court, to hit lots of wonderful forehands and to take part in some competitions like ‘Champ of the Court’!

The children were incredibly well behaved; they listened carefully to instructions, tried very hard, and demonstrated good sportsmanship. They also had a lot of FUN!!

The traditional strawberries and cream went down very well too!

I hope that the children have been inspired to play tennis in the future. And who knows, maybe we have a budding Andy Murray or Heather Watson in our midst?
