Gymnastics Club 31 Mar 2009

On Wednesday and Thursday lunchtimes Mrs Johnson has been running a gymnastics club learning skills to achieve the British Gymnastics Proficiency Awards levels 8-1. It is open to all key stages and has been very popular with the children.
An activity chart in the hall outlines which areas each gymnast must complete for each level.
These activities are, pulse raising activities, flexibility and posture, strength, jumping, balancing, weight on hands and locomotion, rolling, partner work, hand apparatus and apparatus preparation.

During a recent assembly the children gave an impressive display of the skills achieved to date.
