Hello everyone!
Finally, our 2021 semester 1 beginners received their bogu (excluding the men, for now), on the 31st of October! Although the most recent lockdown put a wrench in the gears, our semester 1 beginners have trained hard since we came out of lockdown, and have now started to move towards the next step in their Kendo! How exciting, congratulations to our semester 1 beginners!
Here is a compilation of photos which were taken on the day, please enjoy!
