Gymnastics:

We will start our gymnastics unit on March 31! For 2 weeks, students will build movement skills and learn about safety using the equipment. The week of April 14, students will try new movements on the Canadian Climber. All teachers are trained in teaching the gymnastics unit in a safe and developmental appropriate way. Please see this letter for more details: Letter

Please help your child to participate safely by:

▪ Wear clothing that allows freedom of movement (no special uniforms or leotards are required – sweatpants/jogging pants/leggings and a t-shirt work best).

▪ Tight fitting clothing is preferable instead of loose fitting or baggy clothing as they may get caught on equipment when climbing.

▪ All jewelry should be removed (please leave at home). This includes watches, rings, necklaces, dangling/hoop earrings etc.

▪ Students with long hair should have their hair tied back. Please provide hair elastics.

▪ Students will be actively moving, so please do not wear footed tights and no dresses or skirts.
