Young gymnasts perform

24 March 2021

AS part of their PE the P3 children at St Mary’s Primary School in Newcastle took part in gymnastics exercises lat week.

With the P4-7 classes still at home, the P3s took advantage of the extra space and time available to do gymnastics.

The class focused on balance using the floor and a variety of low level equipment.

Due to current Covid 19 restrictions still in place, children are not allowed to bring PE gear into school so the girls and boys were able to work in their uniforms, with the girls wearing shorts below their skirts.

There were a variety of balances performed using different bases as anchor or pivot points. The children worked individually and in pairs.
