Students at the Glebe Academy had reportedly not been informed about Obama's visit and were shocked when he dropped in along with the UK PM.
After touring the school, Obama and Cameron made their way to the gym, according to reports.
On spotting the table tennis table propped up at the school's gym, Obama said, "Who wants to take me on"?

Other reports claimed that the two leaders, after suffering an initial beating, soon chalked out a game-plan. They avoided clumsy moves and stopped getting in each other's way.
Incidentally, the leaders of the two most powerful nations in the world are both left handed.
