You don’t inspire your teammates by showing them how amazing you are.

Today, let's focus on empowering those around us, celebrating their strengths, and encouraging their growth. Together, we achieve more. 💪 #Inspiration #Teamwork #Leadership

#MondayMotivation
Good morning all and welcome to the middle week of the year. 😀
Life's challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, but it's crucial to remember that persistence is key to achieving greatness. Each setback you encounter is not a sign of failure but a step towards success.
Remember, every great story of triumph starts with someone who refused to give up.
So, stay strong, keep going, and let your unwavering spirit be that light that guides you to your dreams.

#WednesdayWisdom
There is a Japanese proverb that says:
A frog trapped in a well cannot know the ocean.
(井の中の蛙大海を知らず, "I no naka no kawazu taikai o shirazu")
The proverb means that someone with a narrow perspective or limited experience cannot understand or appreciate the vastness and diversity of the world beyond their immediate surroundings.
Meaning and Interpretation:
* Narrow Perspective: The frog, living in a well, only sees a small part of the world and believes that is all there is.
* Limited Experience: This proverb highlights how limited experiences can restrict one’s understanding and knowledge.
Lessons We Can Learn:
Seek Broader Experiences
Stay Humble
Avoid Complacency
Have an Open Mind
By embracing the wisdom of this proverb, we can cultivate a mindset that values curiosity, lifelong learning, and an appreciation for the vast and varied world beyond our immediate experience.

As you are aware we have been creating WhatsApp Channels for your schools.
These Channels will grow to become communication Channels for the entire school community on programmes we run and the great work you do.
We have already established a channel for your school and have starting posting some daily posts on them.
We will start posting school-related posts more in the 3rd term.
Our next step is to grow each schools channel to include more teachers, parents and community members
So for the next 2 weeks we are going to run a little fun competition.
We are challenging each school to grow their channel to 50+ Followers by Friday 29th June
The first school to do that will win a special prize!
