Tennis!

Monday 4th September and Thursday 7th September 

This week in P7, pupils have been beginning to develop their skills in Tennis. In session 1, pupils focused on balance and coordination while holding a racket, as well as correct grip techniques for the racket. In session, 2, this was developed further, where pupils practised control of the ball while balancing, bouncing and slaloming with the ball on the racket. The progress has been excellent already and pupils are excited to continue the progress! Have a look at some images of week 1 below.
