We were super lucky to have Ollie come in and teach us about tennis today. We were looking at gaining control of the ball, aiming our rackets at our partners and the forehand swing. Below is a photo taken by Caitlin, our class photographer for the day. We were also had another super visitor today, Kelly-Torsten's mum. She taught us how to throw the shot put.
