A high point of the last week of term three was the Dannevirke Primary Schools Aerobics Festival in the Dannevirke Town Hall.

A total of 28 teams from five schools entered the competition.

The judges from Activate Gym, Michelle Mitchell and Michelle Walker, had difficult job as the quality of the competition was very high.

All teams had spent the majority of term three creating and practicing their routines with coaches.

A set criteria for moves was prepared in conjunction with Activate Gym members and provided by festival organisers at St Joseph's School.
