Important information
Due to the nature of gradings it is not possible to have exact start times. The times above are a rough guide.
Your group may start a bit earlier or later than planned so it’s best to arrive early and be prepared and ready to go when called up.
There is no warm up so leave time to do this for yourself.
If you miss your group then that’s it, you will need to wait until next grading in 3 months time.
If you haven’t provided a photo yet white belts please come early to the grading and hand one to Mr Shillabeer. I suggest white belts come early and practice in the dojang.
All students that haven’t handed in their red licence book please leave it in the box outside the dojang. You will get it back after the grading at class.
White suits only. Make sure you are properly dressed.
No parents will be allowed in to watch the grading.
Once your grading has finished you are free to leave quickly and quietly please.
You will find out your result at the next lesson you train.
Best wishes.
Mr Shilllabeer
