18.01.2022 R U OK? R U OK Day is an important day to remember to check in on one another and not just today. 2020 has been a tough year for many of us. With mental health being a rising concern amongst the world and a simple question to ask someone if they’re OK could make a huge difference. Reach out to someone today and ask R U OK? Because that question and conversation could save a life ... https://www.ruok.org.au/how-to-ask Follow this link if you don’t quite know how you should approach a conversation with someone #RUOK #itaintweaktospeak #reachout #askthequestion

17.01.2022 HAPPY NEW YEAR to all our SCGC families and friends. 2020 was tough and we were faced with many challenges. We battled through bushfire smoke, COVID lockdowns and the gym having to shut down. We adapted to training online via Zoom and kept our gymnasts active and our minds positive. Nothing was able to crush our spirits. A big thank you to all our gym families for your support during this time. We reopened and came back looking stronger and happier then ever to be back in the gym. We couldn’t be prouder of our SCGC team and our gymnasts for getting through all that 2020 had to bring. Now off we go and onto a brilliant 2021! We already have so many things to look forward to and cannot wait to see what we can achieve together.

17.01.2022 Well done to all the St Bedes students who were able to showcase what they have learnt throughout our gymnastics school program with them. All the students were fabulous at their no card circuits and have shown such progress in their gymnastics over the term! Go St Bedes!

14.01.2022 Our handstand obstacle course had our gymnasts showing us how determined they were to get to the finish line! They had three ‘lives’ to use before they were sent back to the start.

12.01.2022 During classes we teach our gymnasts not only how to stick skills and land safely but also how to fall safely. Our WAG Dev 3 girls have been practicing how to safely fall out of a handstand off the beam. Keep up the awesome work girls! #beambravery
