Love Tennis

Last Tuesday we were lucky enough to have Mel and Lulu from Tennis Central come along with tennis racquets and balls for our tamariki to have a go at tennis.  They all had a lot of fun.  Love Tennis is a free event taking place at numerous tennis clubs around New Zealand on Saturday 11 September, 11am - 4pm.  You can go along to our local tennis club, Khandallah Tennis Club and enjoy the activities that will be taking place.  The speed radar will be there as well as the ball machine (always popular with the children).  This is a great opportunity to introduce your child to a sport.
