Feb/March Journal Article:
The 2009 season seems to have gone in a flash. The past 12 months have been very successful with our student numbers increasing each week.
A special thanks goes to our Sensei Rick Cefai and all the other instructors including Trevor Simpson, Ray Bligh, Ray Borg, Paul Gava, Joshua Borg, Anthony Oldfield and recently Faisal Sahib for giving their time on the mat. I would like to congratulate Anthony Oldfield, Joshua Borg and Faisal Sahib, who were recently appointed as our new Junior Instructors. They have been doing a fantastic job by providing assistance to the other Instructors.
I would like to thank Bev Dubos (Secretary) and Margaret Borg (Treasurer) who control the front desk where they keep a controlling eye on all the students and Instructors - A big thank you.
