Good morning all

Tonight's (25th June) Torquay class has been cancelled due to the extreme heat.

If we were running the class at the Acorn centre it would have run as normal.

Because the Acorn had a Prior booking before we moved there it meant that the class was to run from our old martial arts studio down the road in Barton Business Park.

Unfortunately the old academy is unsuitable to use when in an extreme heat waring. There are no windows and very little ventilation, just the front door. The place heats up like an oven and we feel it would be irresponsible to run against advice.

โ€‹

Plympton and St Austell.

Its forecast to cool down by tomorrow so Plympton and St Austell will run as normal.

โ€‹

Compton Plymouth, Ivybridge, Paignton and Newton Abbot at the weekend are unaffected as its forecast rain and thunder storms by then.

We will look to replace the missing class later in the year.

Thank you for your understanding.

Mr Kelly & Team

Attention, Wednesday Newton Abbot students
(This is a message for our Wednesday Newton Abbot students if that's not you please ignore. Thank you).

There was an unfortunate incident on Wednesday with the parking.
When we arrived for class on Wednesday evening at Bearnes school the staff car park was full with the teachers cars. The teachers were at Wolbourgh school having a staff meeting.

One of the cars was parked slightly in front of the playground gates meaning we couldn't squeeze through. This caused a queue of cars down Gladstone place and not a little chaos.

Unbeknownst to me one of our parents (I do not know who) decided to have a go at the teacher and call her 'selfish'.

It is totally unacceptable that one of our students/parents is abusive or rude to a member of the school staff, We are guests at the school and very fortunate that we have a nice clean building to teach the children in.

I have apologised to the school and will personally apologise to the teacher in question, who hadn't done anything wrong. She had no idea a group was going to arrive after school and expect to park in the playground (a luxury that unfortunately at present is no longer afforded to us).

I will speak to everyone on Wednesday at class but can we not park in the school car park this week please. Cricket field car park is just around the corner.

I'm hoping to smooth things out with the school so we can move past this but Its a delicate situation that takes diplomacy.

Thank you
