CSF City players surprise local schools with visits lesson at Cecil Gowing Infants, before joining Year Two for a Q&A session. “It’s a great experience coming into schools and seeing the smiles on their faces,” said the 25-year-old City midfielder. “It’s good to see infant schools are taking P.E. really seriously.”
“Today, Year One, your dance teacher will be…Elliott Bennett!” It’s not everyday that P.E. lessons start with those words, but students at two Norfolk schools were treated to visits from Norwich City players last week.
