Summary:
The student pilot was practising touch-and-go circuits under the supervision of an instructor. He touched down on completion of the second circuit, but during the ground roll selected UP on the landing gear selector switch. The nose gear of the aircraft retracted, causing the propeller blades and aircraft nose to contact the ground. The aircraft then slid to a stop on the runway.
