Sports for Schools ~ Danusia Francis Visits - 2

           

For the second part we all came together.
Mrs Gray introduced Danusia Francis.

Her trainer explained that Danusia had only just arrived 
because she had been revising for her A levels earlier that morning.
She needed to balance her passion for gymnastics 
with the need to continue her education.

Danusia had two more trials over the next few weeks 
to see if she would be finally selected for the team for the Olympics.

Danusia then demonstrated some of the basic gymnastic routines; 
we were warned not to try these on our own - 
some of them can be very dangerous without professional training.

Finally Mrs Gray had some questions that children wished to ask Danusia, 
before thanking her for her visit.
