Matthew Lawrence, our very own AISM Alumnus & Olympian, presents to our students

On Friday morning, Secondary School students had the opportunity to sit in on a presentation on ‘balancing life and elite-level training with academic responsibilities’ with Matthew Lawrence.  Matthew is an AISM Alumnus and Olympian who understands exactly what it means to represent your school and compete in ISSEA. During his school career, he won over 12 ISSEA gold medals and still holds 6 ISSEA individual records that stand today.

On the international stage, Matthew has secured multiple medals at CANA Zone 4 and a Silver medal at the Junior African Championships. Most notably, he competed at the recent Paris Olympics. He is currently studying a BSC in Management at Nova SB in Portugal. Matthew is a Buffalo for life and has a wealth of knowledge who understands the demands on our student athletes and how to best balance those competing demands. AISM is certainly proud of all that Matthew has accomplished and students thoroughly enjoyed his presentation!
