YOUNGSTERS have proved they could have the right skills to become gymnasts.

The children, who are all aged between six and seven, have passed level seven in gymnastics after receiving coaching at school.

Coaching sessions took place at Rosa Street Primary School, Spennymoor, through the Sedgefield Sports Co-ordinating Group.

Certificates have been presented to youngsters who took part.

Headteacher Colin Craggs said he chose to use the group as an opportunity to introduce gymnastics to the youngsters.

He said: "We wanted to target the infants and invited South-West Durham Gymnastic Group to take the coaching sessions. The children really enjoyed it and did really well.''
