Not to the lowest degree of which is the tug-of-war which I am told will be vigorously contested.As I look around here today I am reminded once again of just how passionate teachers are about sport and what great competitors you all are. One of the consistencies I see when I watch students play at take aim is the love BBA Students have for sport. And what a great thing sport is on so many levels. Beyond the obvious health and activity benefits, sport can teach us much about life. It teaches us about team rick, it teaches us how to get along with others, and it teaches us to work together to achieve a cat valium goal.Its also about trust and responsibility and about dealing with success and failure. Sport also helps us learn about coping with drive and the need to stick with training in order to improve. As well as the benefits to individuals, sports and physical activity also bring great benefits to comm unities through such things as improved health and education, rehabilitation, crime prevention, and gender equality. Another important aspect of sports is its ability to make people feel they are part of something.In a survey done on our last sports day, everybody interviewed said that the event made them feel a part of Borrowdale Brooke Academy. Borrowdale Brooke Academy recognizes the value of using sport as vehicle for development But while the challenges are great, so is the commitment to find solutions. I want to ack right awayledge all the good work done by Teachers and also parents. Everybody has a responsibility to work towards making communities safer. To achieve that goal parents and teachers need to work closely together.This sports day is an excellent government agency to bring people together in a relaxed environment that will build lasting networks and friendships across the sector. I congratulate the organizers and particularly the director of studies Mrs. Henney, t he psyche Mrs. Rutsito and his deputy Mr. Muridzi, the technical coordinators Mr. Maviki, and other members of the organizing team who have done a great job in putting together todays program.
