<strong>Battle</strong> <strong>Abbey</strong> <strong>School</strong> Karate Club<br />
The <strong>Battle</strong> <strong>Abbey</strong> <strong>School</strong> karate club entered their first<br />
karate tournament at the FSK inter-club karate and<br />
kickboxing competition. The team with pupils from Year 7<br />
to Year 13 did really well and achieved 5 Gold, 3 Silver and<br />
2 Bronze medals. Ann-Kristin Vetter and Billy Sapsford<br />
did exceptionally well as they had only being doing the<br />
sport for a few weeks and won Gold medals at their grade<br />
level. Stefania Malewicz competed in the kickboxing<br />
section and drew in both her bouts. The school karate club<br />
continues to grow in numbers and goes from strength to<br />
strength. Pupils not only gain fitness but also integrity, self<br />
confidence, learn self defence and have a lot of fun. <strong>Battle</strong><br />
<strong>Abbey</strong> <strong>School</strong> looks forward to their first black belt in the<br />
not to distant future.<br />
Last weekend 13 pupils also did their next belt grading and all passed. So a BIG<br />
CONGRATULATIONS to all the karate club members for their continuing success.<br />
New members are always welcome. Email Ms Malewicz (malewiczz@battleabbeyschool.com) for<br />
further details or complete the form in the end of term mail out.<br />
KIT MATTERS!<br />
Please could all parents and guardians check your son/daughter has their own labelled PE kit<br />
over the Christmas holidays. Unfortunately, some items of PE clothing have gone missing or<br />
have been mislaid and we are hoping they will be returned next term if they have made it to the<br />
wrong home. If anything is found that does not belong to your son/daughter please can it be<br />
returned to the PE office during the first week of term. We thank you for your vigilance and<br />
support at this time.<br />

FROM THE MATHS DEPARTMENT<br />
Could parents please ensure that all students have a calculator, ruler, protractor and pair of<br />
compasses; to bring to every Mathematics lesson? Scientific calculators can be purchased from<br />
us for £6.<br />
