This is my second year running and my previous mentee got reunited with his family… sad but awesome. I currently meet with my kid once a week for a minimum of an hour but that has hardly ever been stuck to, sometimes I am there for 2 or 3 hours… we do fun things together like playing games, soccer or cycling. We also do school work so that he can get his marks up to scratch and we work on things that he is struggling with.
As a mentor you are more challenged and grown that what the mentee is.. it is extremely rewarding and you learn a lot.
Sam Wilson from Leaf Technologies Durban Sales Team recently traveled to Johannesburg for the Senior Interprovincial Touch Rugby Tournament. The Ladies Team advanced to the finals where they were to take on Western Province for the fourth year running. Western Province had won all three of the previous clashes, so the girls from KZN were determined to break the streak and take home gold.
Play was briefly called off at half time due to dangerous conditions caused by lightning and hail, with the score at 1 – 1. When play finally resumed Natal managed to hang onto the ball and score two tries while only conceding one to Western Province. The girls from the East Coast claimed Gold!
Congratulations to Sam and the rest of the team from everyone at Leaf Technologies.

The Sharks were defeated 29-13 in their most recent match against the Stormers on Saturday, 7 March at DHL Newlands Stadium.
Pat Lambie got the game under way with a high and deep kick off and it hopes for a black & white win was raised, however the Stormers put up a fight that was too good, and luck was not on The Sharks’ side this time around. As Bismarck du Plessis comments, “It was a tough night for us, and although a big positive was the fact that we dominated most of the collisions, we weren’t happy with our first phase.”
t appears that The Sharks’ performance is slipping through the cracks with a lot of tension appearing on and off the field. It is important to maintain a positive attitude when facing difficult times and tension. By staying positive, the difficulties begin to appear less strenuous and focus becomes less cloudy. As a result, less effort is required to complete the task successfully, and you will feel fulfilled like a true champion.
Maintain a positive attitude in your work and you will find enjoyment, fulfilment and overall success in every task that comes your way!

The Sharks face the Cheetahs at Free State Stadium on Saturday, 14 March. Kick off is at 17:05.
Valentine’s Day brought disappointment for the Sharks fans with the Cheetahs defeating The Sharks 35-29 in the first match of the Super Rugby season.
The match, hosted at Growthpoint KINGS PARK on Saturday, 14th February, encountered difficulties before the start of the game with captain Bismarck du Plessis benched due to an injury. Pat Lambie took over captaincy duties for their opening game. It was tight competition throughout the match, with both teams pushing for glory however The Cheetahs plucked the last rose with tough retaliation and determination.
Although The Sharks presented a strong fight, their loss echoes the importance of partnership to produce success, and in the spirit of Valentines Day, the fans continue to admire and support The Sharks undeterred by the first game’s results.
KYOCERA’s management is structured on ongoing support and undeterred determination to nurture partnerships. KYOCERA bases its operations on groups of coworkers who understand and trust one another, with each employee sharing the same aspirations and mindset, instead of the more common vertical relationship of power and authority. By working together as partners, operations run smoothly and business thrives.
KYOCERA Document Solutions South Africa looks forward to an exciting Super Rugby season as associate sponsor of The Sharks rugby team – where partnership is sure to blossom.
