During the Easter break, students attended an unforgettable tennis tour in Portugal, where they honed their skills through expert coaching and daily practice sessions. A highlight of the tour was a friendly doubles competition involving several schools, where Sam and Dan emerged victorious - huge congratulations to them. Alongside tennis, students enjoyed beach trips and had the exciting opportunity to try Padel.
