YR1-2 GYMNASTICS FESTIVAL X2
On 6th & 7th December 2023 we held our Yr 1-2 Gymnastics Festival at the Norwich Gymnastics Club. This was an Develop themed event and was for pupils who enjoy taking part and come to have a try. All Pupils received a participant certificate and the school games value celebrated for this event was Determination. All children were encouraged to display the school games values and each team nominated one pupil from their school who stood out the most for showing Determination School Games Value.
We had the following 11 schools/14 teams attended our event:
- Bawdeswell
- Dereham Inf
- Ghost Hill
- Hockering
- Litcham
- Lodge Lane
- Thomas Bullock
- Toftwood Inf
- Astley
- Garrick Green
- Gt Witchingham
The schools participated in 4 different activities and coaches from Norwich Gymnastics Club ran each activity and supported Taverham High School sports leaders, who were brilliant encouraging the children to do their personal best. It was great to see 111 children involved in various activities and a great opportunity for the pupils to represent their school in a sports event. The pupils were active and improved across the day. Following on from todays event, we encourage schools to provide the children an opportunity to develop and improve their skills further by putting on clubs before/after school, break and lunchtimes.
