Gymnastics competitions

The school entered a Y3/4 and Y5/6 gymnastics team in the borough primary schools gymnastic competition at Southfields Academy.  The pupils in Y3/4 (Zakir, Shemia, Zachary, Jahnade, Zhane) had to perform a set routine and vault on to a box.  For most members of the Y3/4 team this was their first experience of inter school competition and performed very well, resulting in finishing 7th place from 16 teams.

The Y5/6 team (Kayla, Shanay, Shakira, Marcel, Demoy) had to design and perform their own routine, including some set movements.    The pupils were judged on their technique of each movement, use of varying pace, use of space, posture, stretch and artistry.  The team competed against some seasoned gymnasts but performed to their best ability and finished in 8th place out of 12 teams.
