PUPILS at Smannell and Enham CE Primary School learnt about the ancient art of tae-kwon do when The Black Belt Leadership School paid them a visit.
Children from years three, four, five and six had a chance to learn some of the skills of the sport including blocking with hands and feet and punching.
They also learnt a valuable lesson in respect - before and after performing any move they had to bow to their opponent and call the instructors sir'.
The two classes enjoyed an hour-long session each.
"The kids all had a great time and they especially enjoyed making as much noise as they could," said Gail Mott, senior teacher at the school, who also had a go.
"It was fantastic.
"Years ago I was a blue belt so I was a little rusty," she added.
