December news letter 2020

Dear Students,

Well first I have to say is thank you for all your support!! Wow The loyalty you have shown me and the club during this difficult year is amazing and very humbling!

Some of us have had covid and got through it, but as we know some of us have lost family and friends too.

Hopefully next year will be a better year for us all!

We have just had our last colour belt grading and would like to say a big well done to you all & thank you to Grandmaster Donnelley for making it happen.

We also had our Black grading, and I am pleased to say as Mr Donnelley said a full house again. I am so pleased as its been tough to keep focussed to the start of your journey as a black belt and beyond, you really are true inspirational students

We also had students going for 2nd Dan belts, please note that these students have been training with me for 8 years+ , and have had to wait for 4 years for their 2nd Dan. Plus they were fantastic . This shows me determination, appreciation of the art and remember we are still learning to be the best we can.

Another special mention to Sam Streets who has been with me even longer from a tiger for over 12 years. To achieve this it takes even more dedication. Always polite and listens to what he has to do.

Very proud of you Sam keep it up and be the best you can in all you do.

Student of the year awards.

This year there are only three awards for student of the year , Two for Rugby club and one for Kenilworth club.

I have got some different awards this year as its been tough on us all.

There is so many of you who have done so well but we can’t give the award to everyone (even though you all deserve it)

RUGBY- Harry Geyde.

Well deserved Harry , like to say Harry came to us at green tag and had to work really hard to get up to standard of the club. There were lots of tears in the beginning, but now we can see all the rewards in his last grading and his outstanding performance in class over the last few years.

Keep it up you will be a fantastic black belt in March 2021

RUGBY- Olivia Marak

Now Olivia is a fantastic student, never unhappy in class and is a bundle of joy always. Olivia always tries hard and the penny is starting to drop. You are enthusiastic & always make us smile, Lets get you ready for March 2021. Which I know Olivia will say “ok Mr Carter”. Always be happy Olivia and we get you to be the best you can well deserved.

Last year you won P4TKD Club person 2019 now student of year 2020. This says it all!

KENILWORTH- Alex Lambert,

Alex has worked so hard this year and previous years. But this year the improvement in his Tkd is at another level to where he was. At class every lesson and on every single zoom class, outside in the park. I know most of you did this too but I have to make a choice and Alex is the person this year.

Mr Carter
