Key Stage 1 Gymnastics Competition

On Friday 6th March 16 children from years 1 and 2 went to Pent Valley Sports Centre for a Key stage 1 competition. Children had to learn and perform 3 different routines. One to show body management which looked at body position, strength and flexibility. Another was a floor routine where children had to complete gymnastic positions such as a forward roll and teddy bear roll, and think about direction….and finally a routine using the bench looking at balance and jumps. With only 2 weeks of after school clubs to prepare for this the children did fabulously with 2 of our 4 teams being scored as runners up.

Most importantly all children had fun and enjoyed the experience and we would like to say THANK YOU to so many parents for coming to support us.
