Last night we had the honour of hosting former child solider and Me to We speaker Michel Chikwanine.  Over the course of his young life Chikwanine faced unthinkable atrocities during the Congo war.  In his talk Chikwanine challenged students to delve deeper into world issues, to be thankful for the opportunities they have for education, and to travel to learn and experience how people live all over the world.  Chikwanine’s speech has had a great impact on the Ridley community with many students discussing the talk afterwards in their houses.
