Students all around the region were in for a treat on Tuesday when Collingwood Football Club players visited Baw Baw schools as part of their Community Camp.
The Magpies headed to 24 primary and secondary schools across the region, answering questions, playing games and taking plenty of selfies.
Ellinbank Primary School was just one of the schools treated to a visit as Collingwood players Scott Pendlebury, Tom Mitchell, Brayden Maynard, Tew Jiath, Harvey Harrison and Finlay Macrae stopped by to participate in some jump rope.
With news cameras everywhere students had the chance to show their skills in front of the pros as all eyes were on Ellinbank.
