JG. MEIRING - HOST OF G4 ATHLETICS 2015
GOODWOOD COLLEGE stands humble to the principal and staff of JG Meiring for hosting our annual athletics meeting. What a fantastic day of sportsmanship and coordination of events "on and off" the
track. We need to mention the fantastic and powerful message of the host school's message page of the pamphlet
(picture shown below)
Principal Linderts addressed the athletes, learners and staff of the 4 schools with a good welcoming message.
ONLY THE HIGHLIGHTS.
"High four" to the principals: Mr Linderts, Me Africa, Mr Odendaal and Mr Marchand. (G4 principals - we salute your effort to keep sport alive!)
Mr Linderts mentioned the following: "The universal language of sport speaks to the hearts of millions of South Africans. From humble beginnings future stars are discovered on the playing fields of schools where learners engage in the ultimate language of "sport".
He mentioned our beloved Mr Mandela's take on union through sport with the following extract: "Sport has the power to change the world. Sport can create hope, where there was once despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination".
"Laat die dag genotvol wees en mag sport en kameraderie die wenners wees".
DANKIE MNR LINDERTS VIR U INSPIRASIE EN TOEWYDING MET DIE AANBIED VAN ONS G4 INTERSKOLE ATLETIEK. GOODWOOD KOLLEGE WAS BEINDRUK!
