Last Friday, our Year 5 tennis team had an early start as they headed to Northampton High School for the GDST Trust Tennis Rally – just one of several exciting tennis events across multiple year groups this season.
Playing up a year in the under 11 event, our four girls performed brilliantly, finishing fourth overall with several close matches. Their sportsmanship and positivity shone throughout the day. Between matches, the team enjoyed playing cards and games, building camaraderie and fun. It was a fantastic opportunity to compete against other GDST schools, and the girls thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We wish them the best of luck at the Kent Schools Championships after half term!
