Ben Fanelli, captain of the Rangers, did a great presentation for our junior students this week.  He talked about the importance of being respected, rather than just being liked.  He urged the students to focus on more than just the end goal, but rather to reflect on and enjoy the process toward the end goal.  One of the biggest themes of his talk was that we need to honour the pathway our lives take, even if it is not the pathway we had expected to take.  He is such a great role model as someone who makes the most out of every situation, and turns adversity to success.

Ben is the founder of the Head Strong foundation which promotes brain injury awareness.  If you would like to donate to this worthwhile charity, here is the link:
