Dear parents,
Welcome to our final term before Summer. This is a short term and we have a lot coming up. Please read carefully the information below as it explains about booking for Sept and it will also give you some insight as to what will be going on in your child’s classes over the last few weeks of term.
PARENTS WEEK will run on the very last week of Term. (Tues18th-Mon 24th June).Parents are welcome to attend their child’s class in their gym gear and let their little gymnast coach them. Kids get a great kick out of it and it really is great fun.
SAVE THE DATE
EGC END OF YEAR AWARDS AND DISCO
SUNDAY 23rd JUNE 2-4PM
Last year was our first time running this event and it was a huge success. It contains a small awards event and follow it up with games and a disco. The awards will be selected on the night and nominees can be put forward by coaches, gymnasts and parents through out the month of June. Some of these awards will be for comical value such as “craziest coachâ€, and more such as “hardest workerâ€, “best listenerâ€, “most improvedâ€, etc. We also plan to have a members only raffle and a parents only raffle. Again tickets will be on sale from the 1st of June.
SUMMER PROGRAMMES @EGC:
Our Easter Camp this year was a great success, we now offer longer days and an early drop off and late collection service.
We also have a special intermediate/ advanced camp option which solely caters for gymnasts who are with us a little bit longer. This option caters for all our gymnasts that attend more than once a week or that attend an intermediate/ display/ advanced or prejunior class. However there is VERY LIMITED SPACES.
Also over the Summer we have newly added a Saturday 4hour pay as you go drop in class. This class will be ran identical to how our camps run with lots of fun and games and well as learning great gymnastics. It is a drop in class but there is a special cheaper price if booked in advance online.
PLEASE COLLECT A BROCHURE FROM OUR RECEPTION AND DONT FORGET THE EARLY BIRD RATE WILL EXPIRE ON 31st MAY!
All Summer camps are now available to book online with a special early bird offer in place now. See here for more details and to book.
BANK HOLIDAYS: There will be no classes on during the bank holiday Mondays of this term.
SECURING YOUR CHILD’S PLACE FOR SEPTEMBER:
As of the 1st of June you will have the opportunity to reserve your child’s place by booking online and paying a deposit which will secure that specific class for your child. We have made some changes in ages groups for September. In an attempt to avoid any mid year disruption, you will now be booking your child in accordance with their year of birth for beginners. For Improver and Intermediate these classes will now be open age. We have also ensured that there is an Improver and Intermediate option running parallel to most beginner time slots. This is again to try and avoid any upheaval and clashing with other activities once your child progresses. Can we please urge you to book as soon as possible as our waiting list is at its max and we do not want our existing members to lose their spot.
OUR BOOKING SYSTEM WILL OPEN TO ALL EXISTING MEMBERS ON THE 1ST OF JUNE. ALL CURRENT MEMBERS HAVE THE SAME OPPORTUNITY TO BOOK IRRELEVANT OF IF YOU NEED TO CHANGES DAYS/TIMES. PLACES WILL BE GIVEN ON A FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED BASIS.
Please remember to LOG IN first and you will be looking for the heading BOOK TERM 1 (SEPT 2019) classes in the SUB MENU that is for members only. It won’t be launched on the main home page until members have had priority first. This link will bring you to the booking page so you can see the new format and preview new days and times but it will not be open for bookings until 1st of June.
END OF YEAR REPORTS:
All gymnasts will receive an End of Year Report on their last week of term. They may or may not receive an progress certificate. As this is a short term we don’t have an expectation for gymnasts to achieve a new certificate in 8 weeks.
LOST PROPERTY:
We have bag loads of lost property and these items will be left in our reception for one week and after that will be donated to St Vincent De Paul charity.
Again if you have any queries please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Kind Regards,
EGC Management.
