12 lucky children enjoyed spending time with Ashley, a Canterbury RAMs basketball coach, and one of the players Mason, who stands 6 foot 9 tall and wears size 17 shoes! The session taught the children good basketball drills, team work and how to set meaningful goals for self improvement. A great moment here at Netherby School. Look out for the moment to be covered in The Courier this coming Thursday. Thank you Canterbury RAMs.
