Clongowes Wood College past pupil, Jack Kavanagh, who was paralysed after suffering an injury when he dived into shallow water, was the keynote speaker at a recent gathering of Jesuit school students. Jack spoke about the initial despair he felt after the accident. "For some time I asked ‘why me’ but then I asked ‘why not me’". He now has his own business, and gives talks all over the world on motivation, and mental well being and sports.
