Burnham and Highbridge gymnasts from Monarchs Gymnastics Club have started off the year with medal wins while representing King Alfred School Academy at the South West Schools Prelims.
This competition sees the gymnasts only compete with children from the same school and come from schools from across the south west region.
“Juno, Amara, Lily, Jennifer, Regan and Edee competed as a six in the under 14 category, winning themselves a gold medal,” says the club’s Mandy Warburton.
“The same gymnasts also competed in the pairs event along with Katherine and Mya in the under 14 category.”
“Juno and Amara won a gold medal, Regan and Jennifer won a silver medal and Lily and Edee and Katherine and Mya just missed out on medals.”
“The six gymnasts will now be travelling to Stoke on Trent in May to compete against all the other regions in the school six category and Juno and Amara in the pair category. Good luck.”
