This week me, and the rest of my school have been focusing on gym. The Gisborne Primary schools gymnastics festival is coming up, and we want to be ready. We´ve all chosen the group out of A-Grade, B-Grade and C-Grade. (There's also A reserve but no one is in that group.) We´ve been training for about 2 school weeks now, and we are getting more, and more competitive.
This year I chose to be in A-Grade and Rhythmical. Rhythmical is a sort of gym dance. I started off as a back up, but improved so much, I think, that I´m in the actual dance!! Maybe I was the whole time, Who knows? Well, we´ve learnt most of the dance and a couple of tricks. It's really exciting to be learning so fast in so little time. We've started needing to bring our water bottles to practice. Lola's the ringmaster, and Aria is doing a very cool trick, in the middle of the dance!
This morning I had my first A-Grade practice. When it was just us, Lola, Alivia, Aria, Charlotte and I there, in the hall, Charlotte, Lola and Alivia and I were trying to learn how to do a front handspring, Aria was our instructor. I didn't have much luck, Lola managed some, and Alivia and Charlotte were very close. When our teacher came in to teach us, we practised the beam. I am by far the worst at it, Especially at getting on. Then we practised the box. No one had much luck at first, but we all got there. We did the straddle jump.
