Skilled Gymnasts

In their final week at school, members of the Boys' High School vaulting group visited 20 primary and intermediate schools in the district to stage a most proficient demonstration of team gymnastics on a box horse.

Assembled and trained by P.T. master and prominent springboard diver Richard Swindell, with assistance by another P. T. master, John MeFarlane, the group attained a high standard of precision team work.

The pictures on this page were taken when the group was performing at the Intermediate School.
