Kingsley Life: Episode #4 - From School Gym to British Championships

In this episode of Kingsley Sport, we sit down with Jessie Gal, a Year 8 student who trains 25 hours a week, competes for Scotland at international level, and has just taken on the British Championships — all while keeping up with her schoolwork at Kingsley.Jessie talks us through her gymnastics journey, from joining Kingsley in Year 5 to competing at the British Championships in her first year as a junior. She reflects on what it felt like to step up to that level, the nerves, the preparation, and why she left the arena genuinely proud of what she achieved.She speaks warmly about the support she's received from Miss Baldwin and Miss Venner, the role Kingsley's facilities have played in her development, and how the school's ethos has helped her through the highs and lows of elite sport.Looking ahead, Jessie has her sights set on the Commonwealth Games and, one day, the Olympics — with Simone Biles and Alice Kinsella as the gymnasts who inspire her most.Her advice to the younger gymnasts coming up through Kingsley? Keep going. Work hard. Be determined. And shine like a star.——————————Website: https://www.kingsleydevon.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kingsleyschool/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kingsleydevonTwitter: https://twitter.com/KingsleyDevonFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/KingsleySchoolDevon/
