Dear mums, dads, carers and colleagues

This week's Paris Olympics competition saw the incredible success of the Australian teams and athletes continue - in the pool, on the court, the field, the track or the road.  And the team unity and bond of the women's water polo team was a standout for me, particualrly their celebration in the semi-final against USA.
