Kara van der Merwe het Witteberg op besoek as deel van die “Sit jou voet

neer” veldtog. Kara, wat in die film Dis ek Anna speel, het Witteberg leerlinge

toegespreek om hulle bewus te maak van kindermishandeling en molestering.

Leerlinge van die skool het ‘n muntlegging gehou om hulle ondersteuning vir

die veldtog te wys. Geld wat ingesamel is, is vir Childline gegee. Kara se ma,

Mariza van der Merwe, is ‘n oud-Witteberger. Ondersteun gerus die veldtog

Netbaldollas sê dankie!!

Wat 'n ongelooflike naweek was 6 Februarie nie! Eers laat Lizz Meiring ons skater van die lag en skud van pure plesier. Elke mamma, netbaldolla en enige ander persoon sal saamstem: Lizz het 'fizz'! Tesame met die (soos gewoonlik) keurige tafels van die gasvrouens, in die Moulin Rouge tema en Lizz se skerpsinnige en pittige humor, word die oggend van 6 Februarie 'n 'red-letter-moment'! Sincerest thanks to each and every role player who helped made the Mother-Daughter tea of 2016 a resounding success!

Dan, die manne-aand saam Callie Roos en Jack Greeff. Dit bring herinneringe van vanmelewe se weermagdae terug en elke man word geraak of deur die terugblik na 'n ander era of Callie Roos se reguit woorde:'Wees wie jy is, maar net beter daar waar jy is. Wees die rolmodel wat onseker en soms verwarde seuns na soek. Hê jou saak reg met jou Here en jou God!' En weer is ons as netbaldollas dankbaar vir almal se hulp, elke man daar teenwoordig en die ongelooflike 'goodwill' in ons dorp teenoor ons skool. We raised enough funds to help all the touring teams as well as those who will have a coaching course at home. Please see details in the year programme! Aan elke netbaljuffrou en Mnr Jannie: dankie! Julle is ysters! Aan elke ander Witteberger wat gehelp het, dankie! Ons eerste weg-wedstryd is 27 Feb teen JF in Bloemfontein, hou die D6 Communicater dop vir inligting!

Determination !!

“To be successful, you must decide exactly what you want to accomplish,

then resolve to pay the price to get it.” – Bunker Hill

How determined are you?

One thing life teaches us is “never underestimate the lengths someone will go to, to get his own way.” When it comes to achieving a personal goal, many people give up as soon as they face the first obstacle, or as soon as the going gets rough. Maybe the truth is – we aren’t willing to pay the price to achieve it. So, take some time and think about your goals. If you don’t have any goals, now is the time to come up with some. Now ask yourself, “how determined am I to achieve them?” and “Am I willing to pay the price?” In order to develop some feisty determination, follow these guidelines :

Define success for yourself. Set personal, academic, and career goals. Keep your expectations high.

Understand your abilities and disabilities. Play to your strengths. Develop strategies to meet your goals. Work hard. Persevere. Be flexible. Develop a support network. Look to family, friends, and teachers.

“If you want to get somewhere you have to know where you want to go and how to get there.

Then never, never, never give up.” –Norman Vincent Peale

“We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination,

dedication, self-discipline, and effort.” –Jesse Owens

MENTAL TOUGHNESS IN SPORT

The six major characteristics of mental tough-

ness are : Confidence, Focus, Motivation,

Courage, Composure and Resiliency.

CONFIDENCE is believing in yourself and may

increase your mental toughness if applied cor-

rectly. If you believe in your ability to succeed,

then you are preparing yourself for success

and bracing yourself in case

of obstacles.
