06 Feb Paralympic Gold Medallist Michael McKillop Visits Ulidia
Paralympic Double Gold Medallist Michael McKillop visited the Year 12 Sports Studies students this week and we were honoured to have him. Michael is a Sky Sports Athlete Mentor and will be helping the Year 12 students with their current BTEC assignment titled, ‘Planning and Running a Sports Event’.
During his visit Michael told his inspiring life story and the journey of his career, paying close attention to the challenges and barriers throughout. The Year 12 students were both touched and motivated by his words and down to earth nature. We look forward to seeing Michael next month when he revisits to examine our progress.….. with his OLYMPIC MEDALS!
