Response to some inquiries on June holidays gym training

The June holiday training from 9am to 12pm, Mon to Fri (23-27Jun) is for all gymnasts to attend, regardless of participation in Gym Fest in September or training for gym competition in 2015. We want to start the momentum on training, especially acquiring new gym skills. In fact, this last week of June may not have, or only minimal, practice for Gym Fest. Please arrange for your own transport to send and pick up your child at the respective gymnasiums for boys and girls.    

When the Term starts, Thur and Fri are days stated for Gym Fest practice. However, not the entire 2.5-3 hrs would be spent solely on Gym Fest practice. When the choreographer is practising with the participants, the Coaches can be training other gymnasts not involved in Gym Fest on other apparatus. We don't want training on gym skills to halt. Those gymnasts involved in Gym Fest also cannot afford not to train on gym skills. Practice for Gym Fest does not require execution of difficult skills but our school team gymnasts need to consistently train on the skills. Thus, on Thursday and Fridays, training and practice will run concurrently.

Hope this clears some of the concerns parents may have.      

Training Schedule June Holidays

Training sessions during June Holidays will be held in week 4 of the holidays, every day from 23 June to 27 June. Time is 9 am to 12 pm. Parents have to make your own arrangements to send and pick up your child from the gymnasium.
Thursday (26/6) and Friday (27/6) will be set aside for Gym Fest practice on top of the usual training. Subsequently, when school reopens, all practices for the Gym Fest will be scheduled on Thursdays and Fridays.
Our school is taking part in the 2014 Gym Fest to be held on 13 September.
