On Saturday the southern area dojos held there annual Christmas / End of Year party for all the students and family members.
We had a magnificent day of food, cricket, footy, soccer, bocce and socialising under bright blue skies. Sempai Sam went all out with help from her mum and Emily to put on a huge spread for all to enjoy. Did we have enough food and drink? Hell yes!
All the boys and girls took turns at displaying their unique sporting skills as the kids enjoyed the playground and running up and down the hillside. Phil's specialty was marking the football with his face, while I witnessed some of the worst bowling actions in the history of cricket. No wonder we do karate :)
After lunch presentations were made for effort and excellence over the past year of training. Brighton Dojo awards went to William for Junior Effort and Zac for Junior Excellence. For the seniors, Cameron took out the Excellence award and Mel the Adult Effort award. Harley received the Spirit Award. Well done to these guys, the improvement over the last year has been amazing.
Marion Dojo awards went to Michael for Junior Effort and Nicholas for Junior Excellence. Michael's dad Stephen took out the Spirit award. Congratulations to the lads, a very,very promising first year at Marion.
All that was left to do was eat, drink and play. Thanks to everyone who came out on such a beautiful day and made it special. Huge thanks to Sam and the crew for putting a such a great afternoon. It is also important at this time of year to acknowledge the families of our members. They kindly give time and effort in getting our students to classes and training camps, helping at events and letting them come and play with us for a few hours a week. Thankyou. Oss
