The sprint kayaker’s motivational speech centred around the value of hard work and perseverance, encouraging the young learners to strive for excellence in all their endeavours.
She also provided a practical guide on setting SMART achievable goals, empowering students with the tools they need to turn their dreams into reality.
A SMART goal is an objective-setting technique designed to make goals more ‘specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound’.
A school spokesperson said the students were very excited to have a world champion kayaker in their midst.
“They asked a lot of relevant questions and we’re sure it will help encourage them on to work hard in their studies and on the sporting field,” she said.
