Regional gymnastics success

After a successful season of finishing on the podium at all of her competitions, Mia B and her partner won the Regional Championships in March. This meant she qualified to represent London at the Acrobatic National finals held in Stoke on Trent in May. This was her first season of being the base in a Women’s pair (person on the bottom doing the lifting) and she came second out of 13 regions that competed! The image below is of her competing at London Regional Championships for Acrobatic Gymnastics last year.

Well done to all the students who took part in the Road to Wimbledon. It has been a fun five weeks of getting all their tennis matches played. It was so nice to see the students challenging each other as they don’t get to play many singles matches. Well done to the following pupils who won their group stages –
Jessica L won the girls Year 7’s group stages. Harry S won the boys Year 7’s group stages. Anais P won the girls Year 8’s group stages. Josh C won the boys Year 8’s group stages.
