Brilliant gymnastics in year 3!
We are coming to the end of our 6-week unit of gymnastics! This year vaulting is introduced, where children learn to approach the vaulting horse or springboard with controlled runs and perform safe landings.
Jumping in Year 3 gymnastics isn’t just about getting air—it's about learning control and precision. The children are guided through various types of jumps, such as tuck jumps, star jumps, and straddle jumps. These movements help them develop the strength in their legs and core to perform controlled, explosive movements.
No Year 3 gymnastics lesson would be complete without cartwheels! This iconic move is a wonderful introduction to the more complex skills that come later in a gymnast's training.
Here are Ivan and Jamie, about to perform some tuck jumps!
