"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

When people choose not to work somewhere, the somewhere isn’t a company, it’s a team: if we put you in a good team at a bad company, you’ll tend to hang around; but if we put you in a bad team at a good company, you won’t be there for long.

Good missional theology and practice believes that wherever we go, God has already been working.
We don't bring God anywhere. Rather, we discover through prayer and conversation where God has been at work.

"Indeed, it is a trend found in cultures and societies throughout history; and that is to take something of absolute value and to reduce it to something of relative value." - Prof. John C. Lennox

Leaders, be what you hope to see.
For example, if you want people to behave reasonably, be reasonable.

School culture is not created by a mission statement, catch phrases, educational buzzwords or even a set of beliefs, but it is created by the ACTIONS of the whole staff.

I love this time of year. Educators & support staff across all schools, are gathering together, planning, training, preparing - learning from latest research. Child Protection expectations are becoming clearer & blunter (love this), CPR etc training, strategic planning for 2021+

When you're overwhelmed, focus on what you KNOW is true, not on what you FEEL is true. Emotions lie.

You are not a team because you work together. You are a team because you trust, respect and care for each other.

“The older you get, the more quiet you become.
Life humbles you so deeply as you age. You realize how much nonsense you’ve wasted time on.”

You are not your parents.
You are not a school diploma.
You are not your credit score.
You are not your job.
You are not the clothes you wear.
You are not the size of your network.
You are not a house or neighborhood.
You are the sum of your words, choices, and actions.
