Important Update: Competition & Fee Changes
Dear Parents,
We have officially issued the Competition Entry Sheets. Please ensure these are returned to us by this week or, at the latest, by next week so we can begin our preparations.
Training & Attendance
This is a vital time for all students to focus on their learning. To ensure they are fully prepared, please prioritize class attendance.
• Boost your training: If you would like your child to attend twice a week, it is only £10 extra. This is a great way to build confidence before the event!
Fee Update
Please take note that our fees will be changing starting in March.
• The new rates will apply to all new students.
• Current students with missed or late payments will also be moved to the new pricing structure.
Grading Information
To avoid any confusion, we are handing out forms one at a time. Once you return the completed Competition Sheet, we will then provide your child's Grading Sheet. We found that giving both at once can be a bit overwhelming!
If you have any questions regarding these updates, please don't hesitate to speak with me directly.
Best regards,
[Your Name/Club Name]

📢 Important Club Announcement: Upcoming Events & Preparation

We have two major events fast approaching. To ensure every student is successful,
we are officially entering our intensive preparation phase.
🗓️ Key Dates
• Grading: Second week of March 2026.
• Inter-Club Competition: April 19, 2026.
• Location: Newham Leisure Centre.

🥋 Preparation & Attendance
Success requires consistency. We are committed to getting every student ready, but we need your commitment in return:

• Don’t Miss Classes: Every session from now until the events is vital for progress.

• Parental Support: We ask parents to encourage their children during this focused training period.

• Attendance Policy: * If a student is feeling slightly under the weather, we still encourage them to come and watch the lesson. Observing is a valuable part of learning and keeps you mentally prepared.
• Note: If a student is severely ill or contagious, please stay home to recover.

🤝 We Need Your Help!
To make the Inter-Club Competition a success, we are looking for volunteers to fill the following roles:
1. Referees: We are selecting 20 referees for the event.
2. Parent Volunteers: We need 10 parents to provide general support and coordination on the day of the competition.

🏆 Upcoming Major Events
Do not miss these two vital opportunities for growth. These events are open to all our students!

• Location: Newham Leisure Centre
2. WUMF 4th World Championship
• Date: October 10–11, 2026

📝 Important Student Notes
We want to clarify our grading categories so everyone understands their path:
• Grade A (The Squad): These are our elite competitors. You can see their photos in the 2026 Calendar. Joining the Squad is optional; it requires intense commitment and travel expenses for outside competitions.

• Grade B: This is our standard for "Best Students." Currently, all our students have achieved at least Grade B status—we have no Grade C students!
• Goal: While the Squad isn’t for everyone, we encourage everyone to maintain the high standards of a Grade B student.
OSS!
