The children loved joining in with his active workshop and raised over £400! Well done St Mary’s!

Jaydon Paddock – Gymnast for Great Britain

St Mary’s have had an inspiring day meeting Jaydon Paddock, a Great British Gymnast. Jaydon spoke about his journey to success and the hard work and dedication it takes to be come a world class athlete. We were even lucky enough for Jaydon to show us some skills in our assembly!

Well done to all of the children who have took part today and especially to those who have raised funds for Sports for Champions and our school.
