Sunday marked an outstanding achievement for St Edmund’s gymnastics as seven of our talented students travelled to Stoke-on-Trent to compete in the West Midlands Gymnastics Competition. They returned not only with an impressive collection of medals, but proudly crowned as Overall Regional Champions.

Throughout the competition, our gymnasts demonstrated exceptional composure and skill. Every routine showcased precision and confidence, with polished performances across both floor and vault disciplines. Their success is the result of dedication, perseverance, and countless hours of training—often staying late after school to refine routines, perfect transitions, and support one another as a team.

We are delighted to congratulate the following students on their achievements:

  • Daisy Winwood – U19 Overall West Midlands Individual Floor & Vault Champion

  • Megan Grove – U19 Overall West Midlands Individual Silver Medallist (Floor & Vault)

  • CD, Sophie Grove, Mahdi Asaney, Emmanuel Ejeagwu and Morgan Hamilton – U16 Mixed West Midlands Floor & Vault** – U16 Mixed Milano Team Champions

Congratulations to our magnificent seven—you have made the entire St Edmund’s community incredibly proud.

We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to Mrs Grove for accompanying the team and supporting them throughout the competition.

The Floor & Vault team and the Milano team will now go on to represent the West Midlands at the National School Championships later this year. We wish them every success.
