As the school principal left the Grade Naughty and Grade One gala, a group of bigger kids (boys, all) flocked around her:
“Who won!? Tugela or Umgeni??”
“Well, children, actually, in this gala we didn’t focus on winning or losing, but on participating. The little children swam to take part and have fun, and where there was competition it was the classes against each other, not Tugela against Umgeni.”
“What did it say on the blackboard?”
“Well, the points of the red and blue houses were not tallied.”
Here one little blond-haired fella piped up politely but determinedly:
“Yes, but who won anyway?”
