Spring Grading 2012

On April the 1st we had our spring grading. Around fifty students graded as this is a smaller event than the summer and winter gradings.

Sensei Mitchinson said "the standard was excellent, especially the green belts. I was really pleased with the overall performance of the students. It's beginning to look like I wanted it to when I originally formed the club over 2 years ago."

Eight grading trophies in two sections were awarded plus two large medals for exceptional effort.
