Keep Smiling and point your toes Tauriko Gymnasts!

School Gymnastics Festival 2023

SCHOOLS GYMNASTICS FESTIVAL

Every Tuesday for 10 weeks a group of students would be ready and waiting to train after setting up the PAC as their very own gymnasium. Their eagerness was impressive. After many hours of training and learning their routines, they were ready.

We had students competing in different levels against schools from throughout Tauranga in a number of disciplines including beam, floor, mat, vault and bar.

I couldn’t have been happier watching our students perform at their best, having fun and walking away with huge smiles on their faces. The support they gave each other through out the competition was humbling to watch.

It was such a privilege to be involved with such a great bunch of kids. Well done everyone, your hard work paid off.
