Opening Ceremony & First Events

Now it wasn't quite as spectacular as the 'real' Olympics but we had a torch and the girls paraded in their flags and they looked spectacular!

Next we completed the first 3 events - discuss, javelin, and shotput.  To put an emphasis on the team each person threw and then the distances were added up and the team with the combined longest distance won - plus there were bonus points for team spirit.  So until the next events!

Preparing for the Opening Ceremony

22nd of February saw the girls forming teams, choosing their team names and creating their flags.  It took much longer than we expected - but we weren't about to rush them, they were having fun being creative.  The 2nd night of GB for the year and we have 31 girls on the roll, 4 spaces left!  See photos below of the 5 teams creating their flags - prepare for the unveiling next week!
