We have added an additional grading date for those students who were very close to being ready for the previous grading and for some of our newest members:

18th July 2021 – Canterbury

When we feel a student is ready we will “tag” them and send parents a text message with all the details needed to register. All the paperwork needed is available on:

• The Facebook Group (“files”)
• By logging in to our website

Please be sure to read all the paperwork fully – by paying online you are confirming that you have read everything.

For those students who have received a black tag the deadline for registering is: Thursday, 24th June.
You register by:

1. Reading all the necessary documents
2. Paying online (via the shop)

• If your child has a black tag on their belt but you have not yet received a text with information please contact me directly.

See you soon

Following the Government’s announcement that COVID restrictions will remain in place I wanted to take this opportunity to confirm with you all that our classes will continue as they have been. We will continue to have our COVID-Safe policy in place but there will be no changes. This means that:

• Parents – please continue to book you child / children in for every class
• We are still unable to welcome spectators in to the classes
• All students must continue to wear trainers / Martial Arts shoes / plymsoles (no crocks!)
• We will continue to use hand sanitiser before, during and after the classes as well as all our other cleaning schedules
• If you have any concerns about these please do let us know

GRADING UPDATE (27th June) – change of times

Our Grading will remain in place as planned under COVID-Safe protocols however we may need to change some of the times. If so we will be in touch with those affected directly with the new times. Please continue to book in for the Grading if your child / children have been tagged. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Master Finch

PS – don’t forget to book you child / children in for class EVERY week

We will be starting tag-testing for our Grading day on 27th June. This is for all belts and ages across our schools.

If we feel that a student is ready to be tested we will put a Black Tag on their belt and send parents a text message with all the details they need to register. All of the files and information are available to download from our website and Facebook group.

There is still plenty of time so practice, practice, practice!

See you soon

We are very excited to be able to move in to the larger hall at Ditton Community Centre from today (21st May) – The Oaken Hall. All class times will remain the same.

Entry is down the left-hand side of the main building (look out for the MF Kent flag) and in through the glass doors. We will meet you there.

Collection of children is on the opposite side of the building, just a little further down from where they would normally exit.

This also means that, when restrictions are lifted, we will have lots of space to welcome parents and family spectators.

This is a very exciting step for the school and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your continued and amazing support, particularly over the last 14-mths.

See you soon

Master Finch
