About our clients: Theo is 12 years old, and his sister Iris is nearly 10. The children are full of energy, inquisitive, keen to learn, and very active. Theo adores tennis and table tennis, and he also cycles, plays hockey and football, and enjoys going on long walks in the countryside with his family. His quieter time activities include playing cards, board games and chess, and he also loves Pokémon and whodunnits. Iris loves reading, arts and crafts, cats, and plays tennis, netball and hockey.
