Andale School is a small specialist school with just twenty students and were elated to receive a Sporting Schools grant after their first application. This allowed the school to run a tennis program in Term 1.<\/p>\n

Tennis Victoria connected Andale with local coach Danny Oltvay who delivered a fantastic 4-week program, even bringing along students that he coaches from Xavier College who had a great time engaging with the kids in the final session.<\/p>\n

The program culminated in a family tennis evening at Kew Tennis Club funded by the Movement Disorder Foundation. All the students, staff, siblings and parents were invited to share time on court engaged in a variety of tennis activities lead by Tennis Victoria staff followed by pizza and a drink in the club house.<\/p>\n

After the success of this program, Andale is now planning to apply for grants each year, and is committed to running a four-week tennis program with a local coach. They are also hoping to take the students back to Kew Tennis Club to play once a term.<\/p>\n

We\u2019d like to thank the staff and families at Andale school for embracing the sport of tennis, and to coach Danny for his fantastic program.<\/p>\n

Thank you also to Kew TC for hosting the family tennis evening and welcoming the students, staff and their families.<\/p>\n

We were lucky enough to receive some beautiful pieces of artwork from the students, which you can see below.<\/p>\n
