On Monday, 27th April, Mr Stefan and Mrs Armbuster accompanied a group of Year 5 and 6 pupils to a Mini Tennis Competition at Barking Riverside School. It was a fun and exciting event from the very start, with the children arriving full of energy and enthusiasm, ready to compete. Throughout the day, they put their tennis skills to the test against a range of other schools, demonstrating excellent determination, teamwork, and sportsmanship.
