15th May 19
On the 12 May we were once again delighted to host the Summer Rose Gymnastic Competitions with girls from Maltman’s, St Mary’s School in Hampstead, St Alban’s High School for Girls and EJB Gymnastics Club. A total of 71 girls took part competing on Set and Voluntary Floor and Set and Voluntary Vault to the ISGA rules. We were lucky to have 4 experienced ISGA judges.
All the girls were very excited and performed outstandingly considering that for some of the Maltman’s girls this was their first gym competition against an outside school. The Maltman’s Under 9A team came 1st, the B team came 5th, the Under 10 team came 3rd and the Under 11 team came 4th. Individually, Grace came 1st and Amy 3rd in the Under 9 age group and Hediyeh came 2nd in the Under 10 age group.
The tradition at this competition is that every gymnast receives a rose in some form. In the past years there have been silk roses, candle roses, fresh roses, rose soap petals, wooden roses, body scrub loofah roses and soap cup cakes with mini roses on. This year all the gymnasts received a purple sculptured soap rose in a purple pouch and a medal for their participation.
Congratulations to all the girls who took part.
