Wednesday August 11 2021 Selwyn Times Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz NEWS 23 Gymnasts take gold • By Fiona Ellis ROLLESTON 11-year-old Cherry Zhu won national titles at the recent New Zealand Gymnastics Championships in Auckland. Cherry took gold in the level six category after coming first for her ball performance and second for ribbon performance. She also won gold in the grade four group performance. She was part of the Delta Rhythmic Gymnastic Club which performed well at the championships. Her teammates were Annabell Keith, Neve Hendry, Sylvia Zheng, Faye LiChen and Lexie Boon. This was a strong result for Lexie, whose injury earlier in the year had prevented much practice. Club committee member Rebecca Abrahams said the young gymnasts had done well, especially as qualifying for the nationals was an achievement in itself. “I think it’s everyone’s goal,” Abrahams said. “They needed to not only achieve a qualifying mark but also be in the top 20 in New Zealand at the end of the season to be selected for Nationals.” Club members also achieved GOLDEN GIRLS: Cherry Zhu (above) won the level six category, while Neve Hendry, Sylvia Zheng, Annabell Keith, Lexie Boon and Faye LiChen took first place in the grade four group in the New Zealand Gymnastics Championships. second or third place in 13 other categories. “Sitting there waiting for the results can be a bit of a rollercoaster,” Abrahams said. A highlight of the weekend was coming together with other teams from Canterbury, who supported each other. Even those that did not place still had a good weekend, she said. Competing taught many good life skills, including teamwork and how to deal with disappointment. The club’s success reflected the hard work by the “amazing” coaches. “They have to be there the whole time, and they spend hours and hours thinking and planning.” Head coach Alesha Klaassens said the competitors needed plenty of confidence to get up and perform in front of the judges. “I’m always very proud of them,” Klaassens said. Everyone worked hard, with the gymnasts putting in anywhere from nine to 15 hours of training each week. “We go in with no expectations, it’s just a privilege to be able to go.” Events to help parents • By Susan Sandys SELWYN Parenting Network is planning its inaugural Selwyn Parenting Week for next month. It comes hot on the heels of a highly successful workshop held at Rolleston Community Centre last week, called understanding and managing anxiety in tweens and teens, which attracted about 130 parents. Network co-ordinator Kate Webb said the workshop and parenting week was about giving the district’s growing number of parents the information they were seeking on a wide range of issues. “It’s about empowering parents to be able to parent better and also having access to resources,” Webb said. Last week’s workshop had been a great precursor to the week. Clinical specialist Catherine Gallagher delivered much helpful information for parents who were dealing with more behavioural issues as children reacted to helicopter parenting, social media and had concerns about world issues, Webb said. Network members were currently collaborating with providers, speakers and organisations to facilitate the series of events for the week beginning September 20. Managing meltdowns, raising digital citizens and enticing the next generation of young volunteers would be among the many workshop topics. on trend on sale TIPAZ Bedroom Range ON SALE Bedside NOW $ 265 Tallboy NOW $ 799 Lowboy NOW $ 899 Sono Queen Mattress Boxed WAS $ 599 NOW $ 399 SELECTED ITEMS – IN STORE & ONLINE ENDS 16.8.21. boxed for easy transport!
