Today I saw a whole lot of winners as I moved around Timaru trying to cover as much ground as possible within a short time frame and tick of as many things as I could. I drove past West End Park twice and on both occasions I saw a different field of soccer players, their support crew and their supporters. I went up briefly to the netball and saw 4 of our teams all having a great time playing for the fun of it, it was the final day and dressing up was required!! One of our teams, however did not dress up as they were contesting the final of their grade. I was impressed with the "professional" attitude they were displaying, along with their very supportive followers. I am unsure of the final score or outcome from what I observed it was irrelevant - they were all winners as they were playing their hearts out and thoroughly enjoying themselves knowing how much they had improved and learned over the season. They are the winners. As are all the others who stick at it, persevere to the end and apply themselves because they have the satisfaction of being part something bigger than themselves, by participating and contributing to a team. A team works together to achieve, Together Everyone Achieving More makes us all winners.
Well done to all our team players in whatever you participate in, and contribute to, your effort makes a difference. I think we have a lot of winning teams associated with our school; the team of staff, the team of leaders, the team of parents, the team of students and the Board team who work as a team and achieve a better result by working together. At Waimataitai we are all a team of winners, motivated and reflecting doing better all the time.
