Year 4 Gymnastics

This term in PE we have been learning how to develop our skills in gymnastics with the fantastic team at 'Premier Sport'. Last week Miss Evie developed a circuit to help with our core strength, which is vital for gymnastics, as well as opportunities to jump using the 6 gymnastics shapes we have learnt.

We have also been learning how to jump from apparatus safely. To do this we adopt a squatting position before we jump and land with bent knees in the same way. After that we stretch up with our arms to show we have finished our jump. 

Luke from 4JW is really enjoying his gymnastics lessons
"I have really liked this term because I think gymnastics is a great and an enjoyable sport."
