August 2024 Newsletter
Summer Holidays
We do not have any planned cancellations over the summer. Please let us know if your child is going to miss classes over the summer, especially if it’s 3 or more in a row. It helps us to know how many children to expect in each class so we can plan how many coaches we need.
We have had a week of holiday clubs so far and the children have been having a lot of fun and learning new things. We have lots more clubs on offer until 22nd August. Here is a link to information and booking;
We are very excited about the range of activities and clubs on offer, including our first ‘immersive week’. Please book your child onto any summer clubs they want to attend as soon as possible to avoid missing out.
Award Scheme Assessment Week
We held our award scheme assessment week during July. We trialled a new system of parents/guardians getting an email when their child completed a level. This is to reduce the amount of paperwork for coaches at the end of the class and to avoid slips going missing. If you received an email to say your child completed a level, please click on the link to purchase the certificate and medal. We have our next assessment week on week beginning 22nd September.
Car park
Please remember that our car park is one way. We have a lot of people trying to come out the same way they came in and it’s causing a lot of problems, especially at class changeover times. You should exit the car park past unit 5 next door and round the back. This helps the flow of traffic and keeps everyone safe.
GymFusion trials
Our GymFusion squad train on a Tuesday evening at 7-9pm. They attend local festivals and events to showcase their display routines. They are having trials on 26th August and 2nd September for new members to see if the class is suitable for them. Children attending the trial need to love performing and have a confident roundoff, forwards and/or backwards walkover. If they have strong leaps and some dance or performing experience, that would be a bonus. If you are interested, please email Catherine on admin@penkethgymnastics.co.uk for more information.
Lost property
Please check the lost property basket for any items your child may have left at gym. We also have a number of water bottles on the front desk that have not been claimed. Please take any lost property home or it will be donated to charity at the end of the summer.
