On Thursday March 8 the second ever WOKSSA Gymnastics Festival was held at Homewood School in Tenterden. Primary schools were invited to enter squads of 4 gymnasts who would have the opportunity to try a range of different gymnastics disciplines. In total, ten schools attended entering either one or two squads.

Staplehurst, St Michaels, Goudhurst, Lamberhurst, Wittersham, Frittenden, Rolvenden, John Mayne, Colliers Green and Benenden participants took part in four different workshops; rhythmic gymnastics, floor routines, the vault and trampolining. The festival was full to capacity with 60 students attending.

The following coaches led each of the workshops:

• Mass warm-up and Rhythmic Gymnastics:
  Joanne Beattie (International Gymnast representing Get Kids Fit)
  
  
• Floor routine:
  Phil Gower (Premier Sport)
  
  
• Trampolining:
  Sara Saputo
  
  
• Vault:

Everybody that attended thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to try out certain activities that schools do not always have access to. Thanks to all of the tutors and for Homewood School for the use of their excellent facilites.
