On Tuesday 23rd February two of our school gym teams travelled to Carlisle Gym Club to take part in the second round of the Key Steps Gym Competition. The children in Years 3 and 4 completed the Key Step 2 competition while Year 5 and 6 took part in the Key Step 3 competition. All of the children looked fantastic (thank you so much to all who made such an effort to help with making hair secure!) and were excited about the challenge ahead. They all performed a vault and a floor routine and the effort they had put into perfecting their routines was clearly evident. Their vaults were very impressive and the children all received high scores, showing great confidence on this piece of gym equipment. They completed their routines and we were all delighted with everything they had achieved. It is always an absolute pleasure to watch the children performing so well. We had an anxious wait for the results and eventually they arrived the following day. The Y56 team finished in 3rd place and the Y34 team in 6th place in what turned out to be a very closely fought contest. Have a look at the full results below and I hope you enjoy the photographs. Excellent results for excellent gymnasts! Well done to all.
