Stephie had a swimming carnival at One15
There is a beautiful story about this swimming carnival. Stephie was so confident that she was going to win many races, and many medals. And she really wanted to win a bronze trophy, she loved the rose gold colour.
After swimming in most of the different races, she lost her confidence as she wasn't finishing as fast as the other girls, and was sad knowing she would not be winning any trophies.
After having a talk with mum, about practicing more for the next carnival, and that swimming is an individual effort and not everyone is able to win a trophy, she went to get changed confident she didn't win any prizes.
To her great surprise, she won 2nd and 3rd place in two different races, and received a silver and bronze trophy. This made her super happy!
But as the kids were sitting waiting for the final photoshoot, of all the trophy winners, Stephie's friend Mia was really sad because she didn't get a single trophy and therefore not in the winner's photo.
Stephie said to mum "Mia is really sad, she didn't get a trophy."
Mum said "What do you want to do about it?"
Stephie replied "Let her choose one of mine, she can have one."
So Stephie let Mia choose, and Mia chose the bronze trophy (Stephie's favourite).
And then Mia was in the winner's photoshoot.
Mum started crying, and Mia's mum was crying - of such a sweet and compassionate moment. Mum told Stephie "I probably won't remember the placings you got in the carnival today, but I will never forget the act of kindness you did today that made someone else's day so much happier!"
