Pietro and Gaia from 3R reached a major achievement recently: they got a black belt after four years of training at Choi Kwang Do, a Korean martial art. They went training twice a week and had to show all the technique learnt in a 90 minute intensive grading. Despite the heat, they both performed very well and made their instructors and families are very proud .

Well done to Taheem from 6C for cycling 104 miles during the Ride4Peace and raising £1,241.59 for the British Red Cross. Taheem and his family wish to say a big thank you to all the Latchmere parents who supported him and helped him raise such a phenomenal amount of money for this great charity.
