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.
All white belts must have completed a green grading card with photo attached and handed it to Mr. Shillabeer in advance of the grading.
All students that haven’t handed in their red license book please leave it in the box outside the dojang.
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.
Any questions please ask Mr. Shillabeer.
Good luck to those that are grading this time.
