Today Room 13 had a fun tennis lesson with some coaches from Sport Canterbury.
First we practised some simple skills like balancing the ball on the racquet, hitting the ball in the air and then bouncing it on the ground.
After that we learnt how to do the forehand shot.
Following on from this we played a game where we had to hit the ball over the net. If the ball went over the net onto the green turf we stayed in. If it didn't we were out and we had to put our racquet down and pick up a cone. Then we had to go on to the other side of the net and try to catch a tennis ball in our cone. When we caught a ball we could go back to the other side.
We will be having another tennis session on Thursday.
