Congratulations to Year 12 student Jackson Govic who recently became a First Dan black belt in Shotokan Karate. 

The grading took a total of 12 hours, and in the first four hours, Jackson had done over 465 push-ups, sit ups, and squat kicks. 

According to his Sensei, this program is one of the most physically intensive and gruelling of all the martial art gradings. His sister Dayna, a former CRC student, also completed her grading during this time.
