OLYMPIC CREED!

The Olympic Creed

‘The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not to triumph but to struggle. The important thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.’

ROOM 6’s DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW ON THE OLYMPIC CREED!

The meaning of the passage is: it is not important to win but to try your best. I agree with this. I think this because if you always did things thinking you would win, you would be disappointed if you didn’t. If you do things just to take part you will never be disappointed. For example: On world book day I really enjoyed dressing up as Lyra even though I did not win.

What the Olympic Creed means to me!

It doesn’t matter if you don’t win; it’s all about participating. We learn form our mistakes and bad times. We will do things differently next time. I agree with the Olympic Creed.

Amy Blair

Yes I do agree with the Olympic creed because it means that being in the Olympics is not all about winning, but it’s all about trying hard, taking part, doing new things and meeting new people from different countries. It’s a great experience.

Chanelle Huggins

The most important thing is to not win but to take part and have fun.

Andrew Jopson-Reeves

I think that all of the Olympic Creed is false because everyone who takes part wants to win.

Madeline Pleace

I agree because at least they all try there hardest.

Tyler Wilden

I do agree with you, it isn’t about winning it’s about taking part. It is still cool if you win, but I would understand if I didn’t win in swimming because I am not good with it. P.S I’m good with biking.

Tayna Barnes

It is important for me to do my best because…….
I practise so I get better and better. It is like when I am doing my ballet I am, I am watching and listening and following the teacher. I enjoy going and maybe one day I will be good enough to be on stage.
