Warrior TKD News: 4 July

Dear Members,

Congratulations to all of our newly promoted mini kids! We had a really awesome grading last week with a very high standard. There is a whole album of photos from the grading available for you to view here.

Colour belts, your turn is coming up very soon. Your next grading is on 25 August and that's not very far away at all as we will be heading into pre-grading period at the start of term 2.

Holiday Timetable
This week our class schedule runs as normal, however, next week and the following week we will be running a reduced timetable during the school holidays to ensure better class numbers. There are no classes at Three Kings or Diocesan branches during the school holidays, however, students from both of those branches are more than welcome to come to classes at Ellerslie during the holidays if they wish.

The timetable at Ellerslie between Monday 11 July and Sunday 24 July will be as follows:

Monday:
3.30pm - TKD Kubz
4.30pm - Kids 5+
6.30pm - Ages 10+ of any rank, plus younger students at least yellow belt

This weekend we have 12 students from Warrior Taekwon-Do representing the Auckland North Region at the National Championships in Tauranga. We wish Roisin Giles, Kavita Jaduram, Jeny Joseph, Anton Keay-Davies, Michael Marcel, Diya Ciji, Joji Joseph, Oliver Kelly, Steve Milne, Tabitha Crump, Jeremy Lin, Oliver, Mason and James Miller all the very best!

We also have students and a whole branch from Warrior Taekwon-Do up for national awards, the winners of which will revealed at the Awards Dinner during the National Championships on Saturday night. Congratulations to these finalists from Warrior:

Jeny Joseph - finalist for Gup Student of the Year
Kara Timmer - finalist for Senior Sportsperson of the Year
Warrior Three Kings - finalist for Club of the Year

I will be in Tauranga over Nationals weekend too and no doubt will keep you updated as to how our team are faring and award results through our private Warrior parents/members only group.

Have a great training week!
