Schools Gymnastics
Key Step Regional Final
Pipers Vale GC hosted the Eastern region's first ever Key Step Regional Final on June 24th 2010. The event saw over 110 children from across the region perform, making it a very exciting and competitive day for the school children.
Our Norfolk schools did us proud, all performing brilliant routines with smiles on their faces, but unfortunately they did not make the podium. Both the KS1 and KS2 competitions were won by Essex schools who performed their routines beautifully.
Here is a case study with further details of the competition:
I hope that everyone who attended the competition thoroughly enjoyed themselves and I look forward to seeing more of you there next year!
