TESTIMONIALS
Our students have benefited…
I really like the concept behind Gymzoonasium and it has been successfully implemented at our Special School in a variety of ways in recent years.
Our students have benefited from developing their strength, flexibility and range of movement.
Widely beneficial to the children…
Gymzoonasium has been widely beneficial to the children who have participated. I have seen children improve in their physical capabilities and in their social participation, as well as teachers develop confidence including the program in their classrooms.
Loving delivering this program!
I’m loving delivering this program and observing the connection and benefits it has for the children.
Greater student participation levels…
We introduced Gymzoonasium in response to the need to motivate and engage students with special needs with fun movements and meet the requirements of the Australian Curriculum.
Teachers noticed greater student participation levels. A great program that creates improved student outcomes.
Great Resources
I can attest that the Facilitator resources are great!
Huge improvement in muscle tone…
I have used it in Prep and Year One. I noticed huge improvement in muscle tone, co-ordination and balance after using the program for a year.
Highly recommend this resourse…
My Gym Club Proserpine have used the Gymzoonasium resource for the past 3 years as part of our fundamental movement programs.
The skill movements in the books are highly relevant for our gymnastics program and are excellent developmental tools for gross motor skills, strength, flexibility and body awareness.
I would highly recommend this resource to any organisation wishing to teach foundational physical skills to young children.
A hit from day one!
Students at our school have a wide range of disabilities and many present with high and complex support needs. Often activities require a significant amount of repetition to become successful. However, GymZOOnasium has been a hit from day one!
The beauty of the program is that it assumes no limits. Children are provided with opportunities to achieve in fun and creative ways. The students look forward to the sessions and we have had numerous reports from families of students repeating the activities at home.
The children loved the exercises!
We just love Gymzoonasium! The children loved the exercises and could really relate to the animal poses. The session offered lots of challenge, building on gross motor coordination, physical fitness and strength, as well as being a whole lot of fun!
The illustrations and sound effects had great impact – further enticing the children to join in enthusiastically! The children have continued to do the exercises at home and at kindergarten.
