CHILDREN at Tushingham Primary School are on the ball.

The youngsters enjoyed a day of football and fitness with Liverpool Football Club Academy coaches.

Headteacher Sue Dunne said: “The children enjoyed a fantastic day with the coaches. They learnt new skills and had great fun.”

Special Liverpool Football Club badges were awarded to some of the children chosen as Man of The Match.

Sue added: “We are hoping that the coaches will return in the summer when we can use our new goal posts on the sports field.”
