A Mother's Strength: Celebrating Mother's Day

Mother’s Day is a time to celebrate the remarkable women who have shaped our lives with love, sacrifice, and support. As we honour this special day, let’s shine a spotlight on these remarkable women and their profound impact.

The Heart of a Mum:

At the core of every Mum beats a heart filled with love and compassion. Despite the challenges of life, they approach each day with grace and humility, inspiring those around them with their inner strength and unwavering dedication.

Nurturing Strength and Confidence:

Mums instill strength and confidence in their children, teaching them discipline, perseverance, and respect through their practice. Leading by example, they show that with dedication, anything is possible, supporting their children through every challenge they face.

A Source of Inspiration:

Beyond motherhood, Mums inspire their communities, demonstrating strength in all its forms and empowering others to pursue their passions. Their positivity and resilience uplift those around them, fostering camaraderie and support.

Honouring Mums:

This Mother’s Day, let’s express gratitude for the Mums in our lives. Let’s celebrate their strength, and acknowledge their profound impact on shaping future leaders. To all the the Mums, thank you for your sacrifices and inspiring example

Quick Tips for Building Your Child’s Self-Esteem

Self-esteem​ ​plays​ ​a​ ​very​ ​important​ ​role​ ​in​ ​establishing​ ​a​ ​successful​ ​and​ ​happy​ ​life.​ ​A person​ ​can​ ​be​ ​blessed​ ​with​ ​intelligence​ ​and​ ​talent​ ​but​ ​the​ ​lack​ ​of​ ​self-esteem​ ​can​ ​be​ ​a hindrance​ ​in​ ​doing​ ​well​ ​in​ ​just​ ​about​ ​anything.

It​ ​has​ ​been​ ​proven​ ​that​ ​the​ ​early​ ​years​ ​of​ ​a​ ​child​ ​life​ ​is​ ​when​ ​they​ ​are​ ​most impressionable,​ ​they​ ​notice​ ​and​ ​copy​ ​everything​ ​they​ ​see​ ​or​ ​hear.​ ​​​Parents​ ​should​ ​then take​ ​advantage​ ​of​ ​this​ ​by​ ​ensuring​ ​that​ ​the​ ​child​ ​learns​ ​all​ ​the​ ​necessary​ ​social​ ​skills they​ ​need​ ​to​ ​be​ ​well-rounded​ ​individuals.​ ​​​At​ ​the​ ​same​ ​time,​ ​building​ ​their​ ​self-esteem this​ ​early​ ​will​ ​ensure​ ​this.

Here​ ​are​ ​quick​ ​tips​ ​on​ ​how​ ​to​ ​nurture​ ​young​ ​children’s​ ​self-esteem:

Show​ ​love​ ​and​ ​affection​.​ ​We​ ​all​ ​love​ ​our​ ​children,​ ​no​ ​doubt.​ ​​​Sometimes​ ​though​ ​we forget​ ​to​ ​show​ ​how​ ​much​ ​we​ ​love​ ​them.​ ​​​This​ ​is​ ​necessary​ ​as​ ​it​ ​reassures​ ​them​ ​that they​ ​are​ ​important​ ​and​ ​very​ ​much​ ​appreciated.

Compliment​ ​them​.​ ​Don’t​ ​forget​ ​to​ ​acknowledge​ ​their​ ​every​ ​accomplishment,​ ​no​ ​matter how​ ​small.​ ​​​Simple​ ​compliments​ ​like​ ​“You​ ​did​ ​great,”​ ​“I​ ​am​ ​so​ ​proud​ ​of​ ​you”​ ​or​ ​even “That​ ​was​ ​a​ ​good​ ​try”​ ​will​ ​go​ ​a​ ​long​ ​way​ ​in​ ​a​ ​young​ ​child’s​ ​mind​ ​and​ ​will​ ​help​ ​build​ ​up their​ ​self-esteem.​ ​​​Make​ ​sure​ ​though​ ​that​ ​each​ ​compliment​ ​is​ ​convincing​ ​and​ ​not​ ​over the​ ​top​ ​like​ ​“You​ ​are​ ​the​ ​smartest​ ​little​ ​boy​ ​in​ ​the​ ​whole​ ​world”​ ​as​ ​this​ ​can​ ​result​ ​in​ ​an inflated​ ​ego.​ ​​​Instead,​ ​you​ ​can​ ​say.​ ​“You​ ​are​ ​the​ ​smartest​ ​8-year-old​ ​boy​ ​I​ ​know.”

Set​ ​goals​ ​for​ ​your​ ​child​.​ ​One​ ​way​ ​parents​ ​teach​ ​young​ ​children​ ​to​ ​be​ ​independent​ ​is by​ ​making​ ​them​ ​follow​ ​a​ ​simple​ ​chore​ ​chart​ ​this​ ​can​ ​be​ ​the​ ​start​ ​of​ ​goal​ ​setting​ ​as​ ​well. It​ ​usually​ ​consists​ ​of​ ​attainable,​ ​age​ ​appropriate​ ​daily​ ​activities​ ​like​ ​fixing​ ​the​ ​bed, brushing​ ​their​ ​teeth​ ​after​ ​meals​ ​and​ ​packing​ ​away​ ​after​ ​playing.​ ​​​When​ ​the​ ​children​ ​are able​ ​to​ ​complete​ ​their​ ​task​ ​and​ ​realize​ ​that​ ​they​ ​were​ ​able​ ​to​ ​achieve​ ​their​ ​goal,​ ​they feel​ ​good​ ​about​ ​themselves.​ ​​​When​ ​they​ ​hear​ ​you​ ​compliment​ ​them​ ​and​ ​see​ ​how​ ​proud you​ ​are​ ​of​ ​them,​ ​it​ ​strengthens​ ​their​ ​self-esteem.​ ​​​Slowly​ ​incorporate​ ​new​ ​and​ ​harder things​ ​to​ ​their​ ​goals​ ​after​ ​a​ ​certain​ ​period,​ ​and​ ​this​ ​will​ ​help​ ​them​ ​believe​ ​that​ ​they​ ​can take​ ​on​ ​bigger​ ​responsibilities​ ​as​ ​long​ ​as​ ​they​ ​set​ ​their​ ​minds​ ​to​ ​it.

Criticize​ ​the​ ​action,​ ​not​ ​the​ ​person​.​ ​We​ ​must​ ​be​ ​conscious​ ​of​ ​what​ ​we​ ​say​ ​to​ ​children as​ ​they​ ​always​ ​take​ ​it​ ​to​ ​heart.​ ​​​While​ ​we​ ​still​ ​have​ ​to​ ​reprimand​ ​them​ ​for​ ​doing​ ​or saying​ ​things​ ​they​ ​are​ ​not​ ​supposed​ ​to,​ ​we​ ​must​ ​choose​ ​the​ ​words​ ​we​ ​use​ ​carefully​ ​so that​ ​they​ ​understand​ ​that​ ​they​ ​did​ ​something​ ​wrong​ ​without​ ​hurting​ ​them​ ​unnecessarily.

Instead​ ​of​ ​saying,​ ​“You​ ​were​ ​a​ ​bad​ ​boy”​ ​try​ ​saying​ ​“That​ ​was​ ​not​ ​a​ ​very​ ​nice​ ​thing​ ​to​ ​do, I​ ​know​ ​you​ ​didn’t​ ​mean​ ​it,​ ​so​ ​I​ ​hope​ ​you​ ​don’t​ ​do​ ​it​ ​again.”

Validate​ ​your​ ​child’s​ ​feelings​.​ ​They​ ​will​ ​experience​ ​suffering​ ​a​ ​blow​ ​to​ ​their self-esteem​ ​at​ ​least​ ​once,​ ​and​ ​there​ ​really​ ​isn’t​ ​anything​ ​we​ ​can​ ​do​ ​to​ ​stop​ ​that.​ ​​​What we​ ​can​ ​do,​ ​however,​ ​is​ ​to​ ​validate​ ​their​ ​feelings​ ​and​ ​make​ ​sure​ ​they​ ​recover​ ​from​ ​the blow/s.​ ​Talk​ ​to​ ​them​ ​and​ ​let​ ​them​ ​know​ ​that​ ​you​ ​understand​ ​that​ ​“what​ ​your​ ​classmate said​ ​was​ ​not​ ​nice​ ​and​ ​it​ ​hurt​ ​your​ ​feelings​ ​a​ ​lot”​ ​or​ ​“it​ ​hurts​ ​to​ ​know​ ​that​ ​not​ ​everyone wants​ ​to​ ​be​ ​your​ ​friend.”​ ​​​Then​ ​explain​ ​to​ ​them​ ​that​ ​it​ ​may​ ​be​ ​possible​ ​that​ ​the classmate​ ​only​ ​said​ ​those​ ​things​ ​out​ ​of​ ​frustration​ ​and​ ​without​ ​thinking​ ​or​ ​point​ ​out​ ​that though​ ​we​ ​cannot​ ​please​ ​everybody,​ ​there​ ​are​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​of​ ​other​ ​people​ ​who​ ​like​ ​him​ ​and are​ ​happy​ ​to​ ​be​ ​his​ ​friends.

Be​ ​proud​ ​of​ ​your​ ​child​.​ ​Always​ ​take​ ​time​ ​to​ ​remind​ ​them​ ​of​ ​how​ ​proud​ ​you​ ​are​ ​of them.​ ​​​Their​ ​accomplishments​ ​may​ ​seem​ ​small​ ​at​ ​times,​ ​but​ ​we​ ​must​ ​not​ ​forget​ ​that they​ ​are​ ​children​ ​and​ ​these​ ​are​ ​big​ ​ones​ ​for​ ​them.​ ​​​Let​ ​them​ ​hear​ ​you​ ​talk​ ​about​ ​how much​ ​you​ ​love​ ​them​ ​and​ ​how​ ​proud​ ​you​ ​are​ ​of​ ​their​ ​achievements​ ​in​ ​front​ ​of​ ​their teachers​ ​and​ ​friends​ ​or​ ​other​ ​people​ ​they​ ​love.

Never​ ​to​ ​compare​.​ ​​​This​ ​is​ ​a​ ​common​ ​mistake​ ​for​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​of​ ​parents​ ​as​ ​it​ ​is​ ​really​ ​easy​ ​to fall​ ​into,​ ​but​ ​we​ ​must​ ​not​ ​compare​ ​our​ ​children​ ​to​ ​each​ ​other​ ​or​ ​their​ ​friends.​ ​​​It​ ​is​ ​not fair,​ ​and​ ​it​ ​isn’t​ ​something​ ​we​ ​like​ ​done​ ​to​ ​ourselves​ ​as​ ​well.​ ​When​ ​a​ ​comparison​ ​has been​ ​carelessly​ ​made​ ​by​ ​others,​ ​reassure​ ​our​ ​children​ ​that​ ​there​ ​are​ ​other​ ​things​ ​that though​ ​others​ ​may​ ​be​ ​better​ ​than​ ​them​ ​at​ ​some​ ​things,​ ​there​ ​are​ ​definitely​ ​other​ ​things that​ ​excel​ ​in​ ​and​ ​make​ ​them​ ​special​ ​and​ ​unique.​ ​Try​ ​to​ ​explain​ ​why​ ​the​ ​comparison​ ​was made​ ​and​ ​why​ ​it​ ​should​ ​not​ ​make​ ​them​ ​feel​ ​bad​ ​about​ ​themselves.

It​ ​takes​ ​a​ ​village​.​ ​For​ ​anything​ ​to​ ​fully​ ​develop,​ ​there​ ​has​ ​to​ ​be​ ​consistency.​ ​​​These positive​ ​reinforcements​ ​cannot​ ​only​ ​be​ ​learned​ ​or​ ​practiced​ ​at​ ​home;​ ​it​ ​should​ ​be carried​ ​out​ ​wherever​ ​they​ ​go.​ ​​​Enlist​ ​the​ ​help​ ​of​ ​those​ ​who​ ​spend​ ​time​ ​with​ ​your​ ​children on​ ​a​ ​regular​ ​basis.​ ​Let​ ​grandpa​ ​and​ ​grandma,​ ​their​ ​aunts​ ​and​ ​uncles,​ ​the​ ​babysitter, and​ ​their​ ​teachers​ ​know​ ​how​ ​of​ ​your​ ​children’s​ ​strengths​ ​and​ ​how​ ​you​ ​are​ ​nurturing them.​ ​Inform​ ​them​ ​of​ ​the​ ​do’s​ ​and​ ​don’ts​ ​so​ ​that​ ​they​ ​can​ ​apply​ ​these​ ​as​ ​well.

Tend​ ​to​ ​your​ ​own​ ​self-esteem​.​ ​Be​ ​a​ ​good​ ​example​ ​as​ ​you​ ​are​ ​the​ ​ones​ ​your​ ​children look​ ​up​ ​to​ ​the​ ​most.​ ​Make​ ​sure​ ​that​ ​your​ ​children​ ​know​ ​that​ ​you​ ​are​ ​a​ ​happy,​ ​positive individual.​ ​Show​ ​them​ ​that​ ​you​ ​value​ ​yourself​ ​and​ ​that​ ​you​ ​are​ ​constantly​ ​working​ ​on improving​ ​yourself​ ​to​ ​become​ ​a​ ​better​ ​person.

Harry and Friends is a program for all our young students to help reinforce the life lessons we talk about every day. The program gives us a lot of highly effective tools to help instil positive character development in our youngest students including animations, visual aids and colouring sheets!

The main character “Harry” will serve as a positive role model to all our 3-6 years old in not only teaching them abstract concepts like self discipline and respect, but demonstrating real life behaviours like cleaning their room and saying “yes mum” and “no mum”. This example will help them really work on internalising those behaviours themselves.

“Harry and Friends” mat chat series for the Little Ninja program also has a game that can be downloaded from the Apple app store – click the image (top right) to install.

Stripe Testing

Stripe Testing Week – is the last week of each month and classes will follow a testing style format.

During stripe testing week Instructors test students on specific skills.
If students can perform the skill correctly and with intensity, they earn their stripe. Students must earn 3 different coloured skill stripes to be eligible to attend a Grading Test.

If a student is unsuccessful in obtaining their stripe in a particular month,  there is an opportunity just before the grading test to retest for their stripes. So the secret to keeping up-to-date with the curriculum and passing the stripe testing is that you need to practice at home.

%%title%% %%page%% %%sep%% %%sitename%%

Grading Tests

Grading tests are special ceremonies where students are tested for their next belt rank. They are a little different from stripe testing. 

At a Grading Test, Senior Instructors test students for their next belt rank
They are assessing the skills learned for the previous 3 month term as well as students’ intensity, courage, resilience and black belt attitude. 

Since you have just started your martial arts journey, your instructor will let you know in class whether you’ll be ready for this test or whether you should focus on the next test in 3 months time. If you are unsure, your should see your Instructor for feedback. 

Here are 10 tips for a successful belt examination:
1. Train with diligence 

2. Get to know your grading requirements

3. Train with different partners

4. Always train with a martial arts spirit

5. Ask your instructors what to work on

6. On the day of grading… be prepared

7. Stay focused, Stay alert!

8. Give your best and stay humble

9. Show your martial arts, according to your level

10. Don’t rush and don’t give up!
