It was an exciting experience to be at the NIST competition representing Bangkok Patana School. I felt nervous at the start. I had to think about all my routines in my head over and over again until I could remember them by heart. For my first effort at Level 2 I think I did okay but I know I can do better in the future. I won a great 2nd place overall. We had two top gymnasts, Xavi in 2nd overall and Thannan in 3rd. I think we a did great job for Bangkok Patana School. I think next time I will do better and win in future competitions. Beniam Piller, 4B

I think the gymnastics competition went well because I got a good score and I also had lots of fun. I think that my skills were good and that I have improved after the competition. I was really nervous when it began but I started to feel alive when I finished preforming. Kirsten Shelford, 5C
In my opinion the competition ran smoothly and our Level 2-3 Boys’ did very well. I was very happy coming in 1st place in the rings and extremely pleased with coming 3rd overall considering I have only been doing the ECA for three months. One thing I can improve on is the parallel bar routines because I don’t feel so confident while swinging. Also another thing I’m always reminded of is to point my toes! Altogether the event itself was well organised, good fun and a fantastic first experience of a gymnastics competition. Matthew Murphy, 7W
