Role Models: Terry Fox

Perseverance & commitment
Challenge
Global issues

There was a time when role models were not necessarily the richest or best looking members of the community...

Looking at these exceptional people and their achievements can help you better understand the learning outcomes.

I was actually surprised that not one person present on the IB1 trip had heard of Terry Fox. In three of the countries where I previously lived, a Terry Fox run was locally organised. And students would take part.
You don't know what perseverance means until you have heard Terry Fox's story. A true modern hero.
