Lakeside grade 5 student Geethan has earned his time off over the summer break after a school year of exciting gymnastics events. Competing at the higher level in the ‘Men’s Artistic Gymnastics’ in 2017, Geethan’s achievements are even more impressive because he took CIS competitive gymnastics to regional and local competitions that he had not competed in before.

The competitive season started strong in Singapore, at the UWCSEA (Dover) competition in January 2017, where Geethan ranked overall 3rd place. Next was the Federation of British International Schools in Asia (FOBISIA) competition in Bangkok, jointly hosted by the British School, Manila and Harrow International, Bangkok.

Back in Singapore, Geethan competed at the UWCSEA (East) invitational competition in February, followed by the 2017 Moose Game in Bangkok, where he earned 3 gold medals and 3 silver medals. Geethan ended the season on a high, competing in the SAS spring invitational meet, bringing home 3 silver and 2 bronze medals.

Geethan looks forward to pursuing gymnastics and representing CIS in the next academic year.

Congratulations Geethan on balancing your school commitments while pursuing your passion for gymnastics - you’ve achieved some amazing results in gymnastics this year. Your skills combined with discipline, hard work, and perseverance are absolutely unparalleled!
