Following the Government’s announcement that COVID restrictions will remain in place I wanted to take this opportunity to confirm with you all that our classes will continue as they have been. We will continue to have our COVID-Safe policy in place but there will be no changes. This means that:
GRADING UPDATE (27th June) – change of times
Our Grading will remain in place as planned under COVID-Safe protocols however we may need to change some of the times. If so we will be in touch with those affected directly with the new times. Please continue to book in for the Grading if your child / children have been tagged. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

We will be starting tag-testing for our Grading day on 27th June. This is for all belts and ages across our schools.
If we feel that a student is ready to be tested we will put a Black Tag on their belt and send parents a text message with all the details they need to register. All of the files and information are available to download from our website and Facebook group.
There is still plenty of time so practice, practice, practice!
See you soon

We are very excited to be able to move in to the larger hall at Ditton Community Centre from today (21st May) – The Oaken Hall. All class times will remain the same.
Entry is down the left-hand side of the main building (look out for the MF Kent flag) and in through the glass doors. We will meet you there.
Collection of children is on the opposite side of the building, just a little further down from where they would normally exit.
This also means that, when restrictions are lifted, we will have lots of space to welcome parents and family spectators.
This is a very exciting step for the school and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your continued and amazing support, particularly over the last 14-mths.
See you soon
