January 5th 2006: Change of Venue & Beginner's Class
For the next 10 weeks, Wednesday training at Trevelyn has been replaced with a Thursday session at John Marley Campus, starting on Thursday 12 January (ie. There is no Wednesday 11th January session). This is because of Newcastle College Acadmic teaching clashes.
To compensate, the Thursday session will run from 6 - 7.30pm (though there is opportunity to make this a longer session).
The Beginner's class will therefore start on Monday 16th January at Trevelyn Studios.
