Junior School, Brooklyn Park

Year 1/2 Gymnastics

During the beginning of Term 3, the three classes in Year 1 and Year 2 at Brooklyn Park are participating in a five week gymnastics program at the Western Youth Centre on Marion Road. Students have been enjoying learning a variety of gymnastic skills taught by qualified instructors.

 

A few students have chosen some highlights to share with you. 

 

“My favourite part of gymnastics was doing a cat sit and going on the mini trampoline” - Imisi

 

“My favourite part was going on the trampolines, and I really enjoyed bouncing then landing in lots of different types of positions.” - Clay

 

“My highlight was learning lots of new gymnastic skills that I didn’t know before. I enjoyed learning how to do a forward job.” - Joie 

 

“We spent time learning how to do lots of different landings. We practiced landing on mats and jumping on trampolines.” - Max
