First ever FOS Table Tennis Teams selected!

The first ever FOS Table Tennis teams were selected after a week of trials in the last week of Term One. The Primary Sports Canterbury Friday Winter Sports competition is offering Table Tennis for the first time this year. We are allowed to enter two teams of two. After the trials four children were named in the teams. Three out of the four children chosen were from Team 7! Well done to Moss, Ben C and Maddison. Obviously having a table in their class has benefits! Joining them is Alex McN from Room 10 with reserves being Young Sung and Eric K from Room 9. Thanks to the 20+ children who trialled.
