What a bunch of little champions! Today our karate students presented us with a donation of $713.80 from their Kick-a-thon fundraiser last Saturday. Most of the kids managed over 600 kicks each.

Thank you to Glenn our volunteer instructor for organising the event and for being such an amazing, kind and considerate instructor. The students love you.
