Next up ... the National Finals!
On March 25, our fabulous gymnasts competed in the Southern Region Competition winning 10 Golds, 9 Silver and 3 Bronze medals.
As well as performing their socks off, the students were a complete delight, approaching the competition with great maturity. They were so supportive towards all of the other team members, many of whom had not performed in a gymnastic competition before.
As well as winning 22 medals we have also had official confirmation today that we have 5 qualifications for the National Finals in Stoke on Trent in May:
U14 Boys Tumbling: Patrick Page
U14 Girls Tumbling: Gemma Stokes
U14 Mixed Pairs: Henry Loomis and Gemma Stokes
U14 Boys Pairs: Patrick Page and Henry Loomis
U14 Six: Amy Klaire, Abi Green, Ellie Roberts, Gemma Stokes, Tilly Cornaia and Kaitlyn Nicholson.
