The 'Fundamentals' programme developed by British Gymnastics forms an integral part of 'Rolling Rascals' pre school programmes.

16 different themed programmes aimed at developing essential basic skills in movement and co-ordination. These skills play an essential role in every day life and are fundamental to ALL types of physical learning. Participation in the scheme stimulates the imagination, gives children a head start in encountering new physical experiences and in developing social interaction.

Upon completion of each themed programme children have the opportunity to attain a relevant badge and certificate.

TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT

The Fundamental movement ideas for early years programme has been developed to make it accessable to a wide variety of childrens organisations. Without the need for large pieces of apparatus the programme can be delivered in play groups, pre schools, nurserys or by childcare practitioners and child minders, offering such organisations a ready made physical activity programme.

'British Gymnastics FUNdamental Early Years Leaders Module' is an award designed to assist all those who wish to deliver the programme.  The four or six hour module is delivered by Barry Phelan (British Gymnastics Early Years Fundamentals Tutor) and includes in course assessment and a certificate of attendance and training. (NB. this is not a British Gymnastics Coaching Qualification).
