Master Class
This term we have eight masterclasses scheduled for our gymnasts. These one-off classes on Saturdays from 1.30-2.30 are a great way for the girls to learn more about different styles of dance, conditioning, nutrition and to also be able to interact with more members within the club. This concept was first trialed in term 1 and we were very happy with the results. Each masterclass costs $5 for the gymnasts who are level 3 and up. For anyone else that wishes to join in please email ggigymclub@gmail.com in advance to check the class availability. Some classes to look forward to this term are yogalates, salsa dancing, contemporary, inferno Pilates and jazz.

CLOSING DAY: THANK-YOU & PHOTO UPDATE
A very quick kia ora koutou to everyone who participated and joined us at our Closing Day.
The displays are the part of the year that the gymnasts often look forward to without the pressure of competition season on them and I know that the parents will have enjoyed seeing all the girls having fun with their team-mates during their performances.
All the photos that we took at Closing Day and at the Yearbook photo-shoot will be processed over the holidays. There are over 3000 photos to go through so there should be some good ones in there (and if not, then you need to sack the photographer for next year!).
There will be more information coming about the photos with how and when these will be available to you once we have finalised a few more details (mainly cost), but in brief the three offerings will be:
1. Team photo (the one where I braved my fear of ladders... you had to be there... and thanks to those who were and held the ladder steady!!!)
2. Yearbook: photos of gymnasts from the photo-shoot plus some other related photos to keep as a nice memory of the gymnasts that your daughter has been involved with over the year.
3. Digital Disc: this would include the Closing Day displays on video as well as various other photos yet to be confirmed.
We will email club members and post information up here as soon as we can confirm all the details.
In the meanwhile, please enjoy your summer with your families, have a wonderful Christmas and New Year and we look forward to seeing you all and welcoming our new gymnasts in 2016.

2015 AUSTRALIAN NATIONALS
Ella has now returned from Australian Nationals in Melbourne. The results from the trip meant that none of the individual NZ gymnasts came home with any medals, although they all made NZ very proud. It was a tough competition; as anyone who has represented NZ in Australia knows. It was a fantastic result that the Sub-Junior Group secured a bronze medal so that the NZ Team could bring something glittery home.
Full results can be found here.
