24 September 2010 Dear Students and Parents Following the success of the last three academic years the Physical Education Department will continue to provide opportunities for our students to learn new sports with professional coaches and instructors. The first activities we are offering our students this year are judo, street dance, and golf tuition. These sessions will last for 8 (10 for judo) consecutive weeks each and would give a tremendous opportunity to try something new or develop those skills acquired. Judo will take place at the school with a small charge of £25 for the 10 sessions working out at £2.50 per session. All equipment is provided and supplied by the coach. Street Dance will also take place at the school with again a small charge of £20 for the 8 sessions working out at £2.50 per session. No equipment is required for this activity. The golf tuition will continue to take place at Birchwood Park Golf Course with one of their club professionals and will cost £40 for the 8 sessions working out to £5 per hour session. All equipment is provided, however, students can bring their own clubs if they wish (please put clubs in the PE store once arrived at school). Transport to and from Birchwood Golf Club will be provided by the school. If you would like to sign up to any/all of the sessions then please tick the box of the session you wish your son to attend. Please make cheques payable to Wilmington Grammar School for Boys. Please return this form along with payment to the finance office ASAP as spaces are limited to 30 for Judo, 30 for Street Dance, and 12 for golf. Places will be allocated on a first come first serve basis. Please note that these are very popular activities and they do tend to get over-subscribed.
