Our Jnr Comm Games theme is an opportunity for the children to experience (in their very own way) a big world event happening in their life!
More than that, it’s a super fun way of seeing how the gymnastic skills and activities they’ve been working on in class at Delta Jnr GymKids prepares them for any and all sports!
Our Jnr GymKids will be working in group and individual events such as wobbly weight lifting, lots of track & field, diving in and swimming along scooter board lanes, equestrian galloping hurdles, and mounting the beam horse to name a few.
The children will have a chance to start learning about working in teams and cheering on their friends as they ‘make it to the finish line. We’ll be collecting stickers on their ‘official Jnr Comm Games passes for great efforts at our events too!
It’s about really knowing and controlling every part of our body with strength and flexibility.
When a child knows how to move and control their own body – adding a bat or ball, or playing with others in a team is a much more successful experience.
We have our very own Delta Gymnast Georgia Godwin representing Australia at her second Commonwealth Games! You’ll also find that many of the athletes across all sports got their start in gymnastics too! Check out this great blog on our website, which includes a fantastic video about ‘start here go anywhere’…
