Prep House Gymnastics Competition

The Wallace Hall at Upton House played host to House Gymnastics on Tuesday 21st March. This involved all children from Forms 4 to 6 and required them to either perform a routine as a part of a group or complete a solo display. Each year group had a focus for their routines; Form 4 focus was weight on hands skills, Form 5 focus was rolling skills and Form 6 focus was rotation skills. It was a fantastic showcase of what they have learnt this term in our gymnastics lessons as well as an outstanding demonstration of hard work and determination to be able to produce such lovely routines. After a nail-biting competition, St George came away as the triumphant team. We were delighted to welcome back Ms Sarah Wilson, Head of Heathfield School, to judge our competition. She was accompanied by Miss K Boyce and two fantastic Heathfield gymnasts who gave exceptional performances while the judges deliberated. We were also treated to an amazing routine delivered by a former Uptonian that wowed everyone watching and rounded-off a wonderful evening of gymnastics in true style.

The audience in the Wallace Hall was joined by 422 family members and friends watching online in 14 countries including USA, Brazil, Switzerland, Malaysia, Spain, South Africa, Mali and Finland.
