<h1>A Call to Action: Dr. Mandela Visits SMCS</h1>
As part of its commitment to extended learning opportunities outside the classroom, St. Michael’s College School (SMCS) recently welcomed Dr. Siyabulela Mandela, the great-grandson of Nelson Mandela, for a day of reflection, dialogue, and meaningful exchange.
Dr. Mandela is a peace and human rights activist and a lecturer for politics and international relations at the University of Kurdistan Hewlêr in Iraq. His visit to SMCS on February 23, 2026, included two student sessions and one evening parent and alumni session.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/smcs-siyabulela-mandela-visit-1.jpg" alt="Siyabulela Mandela speaking with SMCS students" width="1200" height="800" class="st-michael-img-1200" /> 
“Dr. Mandela provided an amazing opportunity for students to be challenged with the idea that they have a unique responsibility, because of the privileges they have been afforded, to address social inequities and to pursue justice,” says Emile John ’87, vice principal.
The first morning session with Grades 7-9 students centred on identity and character. Dr. Mandela encouraged students to consider the power of their own stories and reminded them that leadership begins long before a title is ever given. Through thoughtful examples and approachable language, he emphasized empathy, personal responsibility, and the courage required to stand up for what is right. The message for SMCS students was clear: small daily choices shape the kind of person one becomes.
“Dr. Mandela’s speech was nothing short of powerful,” says Maksym Hetmanczuk, Grade 8. “The way he interacted with us really inspired me, and he opened up my eyes about how a country with such a dark past can still have hope for a bright future.”
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/smcs-siyabulela-mandela-visit-2.jpg" alt="Siyabulela Mandela speaking with SMCS students" width="1200" height="800" class="st-michael-img-1200" /> 
Dr. Mandela’s second session invited Grades 10-12 students into a more complex conversation, challenging them to examine systems of justice, questioning assumptions, and reflecting on their role in shaping communities marked by fairness and dignity. The discussion moved fluidly between history and present-day realities, prompting students to consider how leadership is exercised not only on a global stage but also within their own homes, classrooms, and communities.
“Dr. Mandela&#8217;s vision and values on leadership, truth and reconciliation was truly inspirational,&#8221; says Raheem Harrison, Grade 12. “He mentioned that in order to be an effective leader, it takes strong courage and empathy—his message resonated with me deeply.”
The evening’s presentation drew a strong turnout, reflecting the deep interest within the broader school community. Parents and guests engaged closely with Dr. Mandela’s reflections, particularly his explanation of Truth and Reconciliation. He spoke of reconciliation not as a passive act of moving on, but as a deliberate process—one that requires honesty about the past, acknowledgement of harm, and a sustained commitment to change.

Throughout the day, what resonated most was the clarity and sincerity of Dr. Mandela’s voice. While connected to a remarkable legacy, he spoke not from inheritance alone, but from study, experience, and conviction. His message called on the community to move beyond admiration toward thoughtful action.
“Dr. Mandela’s visit was more than a series of presentations,” says Dr. Daniel Lumsden ’96, community engagement and learning lead. “It was an opportunity for formation—a reminder that the pursuit of justice, understanding, and reconciliation is ongoing, and that each generation carries a responsibility to continue the work.”

<h1>St. Michael’s College School appoints new Principal</h1>
St. Michael’s College School (SMCS) and the Basilian Fathers are pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Philip Wilson as the school’s 32nd principal in its distinguished 173-year history.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/smcs-phil-wilson-headshot.jpg" alt="Phil Wilson, headshot" width="330" height="495" class="float-left" />
Wilson currently serves as Superintendent of Education with the Brant Haldimand Norfolk Catholic District School Board (BHNCDSB), where he provides system-level leadership in student achievement, faith formation, co-curricular programming and complex operational matters.
“On behalf of St. Michael’s College School and the Basilian Fathers, we are delighted to welcome Mr. Wilson to our community,” says Fr. Andrew Leung, CSB, President. “He brings a strong faith-centred leadership approach and a demonstrated commitment to academic excellence, equity, and the holistic formation of students. We look forward to his leadership as we continue our mission of excellence in Catholic boys’ education.”
With more than 25 years of experience in education, Wilson has served as a teacher, vice principal, principal, and superintendent. As a school principal, he led diverse learning communities where academic growth and co-curricular excellence were deeply integrated. He created innovative programmes to support student-athletes excel academically and athletically, with a focus on character development. His work in equity, special education, and student achievement reinforces excellence and inclusion as complementary commitments rooted in the Catholic call to honour the dignity of every person.
He has also supported school leaders and staff across elementary and secondary schools in instructional leadership and student success.
Rooted in Catholic faith and inspired by the Basilian tradition, Wilson’s leadership emphasizes presence, service, and accompaniment. Early in his vocation, Wilson had the opportunity to work alongside the Basilian Fathers, influencing his enduring commitment to the formation of young men through faith, discipline, and community.
“I am deeply honoured and humbled to serve as Principal of St. Michael’s College School,” says Wilson. “St. Michael’s has a proud Basilian tradition of forming young men in Goodness, Discipline, and Knowledge. I look forward to partnering with the Basilian Fathers, faculty, staff, students, families, and alumni as we build upon this strong foundation and continue to challenge our students to Be the Good.”
SMCS looks forward to a collaborative and seamless transition with current Principal Pat Daly in the months ahead and to welcoming Wilson in his new role in August 2026.
St. Michael’s College School was pleased to partner with Phelps, a trusted, research-driven executive search and leadership advisory firm, to lead this Canada-wide search and ensure an inclusive, high-touch process from consultation through to final appointment.

<h1>Kerry Blues Veteran Commits to Laurier</h1>
Grade 12 student-athlete, Hugo Thomas, has committed to spending the next chapter of educational journey in Waterloo, representing the purple and gold of Wilfrid Laurier University.
The St. Michael’s College School (SMCS) wide receiver will join the Golden Hawks this fall while pursuing a business degree.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/smcs-hugo-thomas-3.jpg" alt="Hugo Thomas signs with Wilfrid Laurier for football." width="1200" height="800" class="st-michael-img-1200" /> 
“I chose Wilfrid Laurier University because of the winning culture, the coaching staff, and the amazing academics,” says Thomas. “From the beginning, it felt like a place where success is expected—not just on the field but in the classroom too. The coaches made me feel valued and showed real belief in my development as both a player and a person. I wanted to be part of a programme that pushes you to be your best every day.”
Thomas will enter Laurier’s honours BA programme with a focus on business management, allowing him the flexibility to explore different areas of study while building a strong foundation in business and leadership.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/smcs-hugo-thomas-2.jpg" alt="Hugo Thomas playing on the Kerry Blues Sr. Football team." width="500" height="557" class="float-left st-michael-img-500" style="padding-bottom:10px;" />
“Laurier’s strong reputation in business and management stood out for me, as well as the strong support system available to student-athletes,” says Thomas. “I like that the programme emphasizes leadership, teamwork, and real-world application—all things that connect directly to athletics. The balance between academics and athletics is something Laurier does well, and that was important to me.”
His passion for football was ignited in Grade 6, playing flag football, before transitioning to tackle football in Grade 9 at SMCS.
“I grew up playing football on my elementary school team and spending hours throwing the ball around with friends,” adds Thomas. “I lived in Revelstoke, B.C., and Collingwood, Ontario, and in both places, football was something I loved doing any chance I got.”
During Thomas’ teenage years, he thrived as a multi-sport athlete, splitting his time between basketball, hockey, track and field, in addition to his commitment to football.
“Growing up, I was always active in sports, and I truly believe it helped me build a strong athletic foundation and my competitive spirit,” he says.
In 2024, Thomas received the SMCS JV Most Outstanding Player and Character Award. The next season, he was named an Ontario Summer Football League (OSFL) All-Star (2025) and was also selected as a Toronto All-Star that year. In 2026, Thomas earned an All-Ontario Honourable Mention.
“Hugo represents everything you hope for in a captain—his character is defined not just by how he plays the game, but by how he carries himself every single day,” says Dr. Daniel Lumsden ’96, Sr. Kerry Blues coach and community engagement and learning lead. “Around football, he leads with toughness and accountability, holding himself to a high standard and bringing others with him. He understands that leadership is not about being the loudest voice; it is about consistency and doing the right thing when no one is watching. His commitment to Laurier speaks volumes about who he is. They (Laurier) are not just getting a football player; they are getting a leader of character.”
At SMCS, Thomas was a four-year member of the Kerry Blues football programme, where he experienced first-hand the discipline and accountability required to compete at a high level.
“My experience playing football at St. Mike’s was honestly a 10 out of 10,” says Thomas. “The expectations were high, and nothing was handed to you. You had to earn everything. There were tough practices, hard losses, and long days, but seeing the growth from Grade 9 to Grade 12 and building those bonds with my teammates made it an unforgettable experience.”
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/smcs-hugo-thomas-1.jpg" alt="Hugo Thomas playing on the Kerry Blues Sr. Football team." width="1200" height="773" class="st-michael-img-1200" /> 
Thomas credits SMCS not only for his football development but also for the foundation it provided him with in the classroom, preparing him for the next level.
“St. Michael’s taught me discipline, time management, and accountability,” he says. “Balancing academics and athletics forced me to stay organized and consistent. I spent a lot of time training, recovering, and improving, and I thank all my coaches and trainers for their support and guidance. The culture at SMCS emphasizes hard work and character, and that mindset is something I will carry with me to Laurier.”

<h1>Top Delegation Award for Model UN Club</h1>
A St. Michael’s College School (SMCS) first was recently realized as the Model UN club distinguished itself at the largest Model United Nations conference in Toronto.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/smcs-uoft-mun-2.jpg" alt="SMCS Model UN at the UTMUN conference in Jan. 2026." width="1200" height="900" class="st-michael-img-1200" /> 
Alongside taking home multiple individual awards, the club captured Best Overall Delegation for the first time at the 19th annual University of Toronto Model United Nations Conference (UTMUN), held January 29 to February 1, 2026.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/smcs-uoft-mun-3.jpg" alt="SMCS Model UN at the UTMUN conference in Jan. 2026." width="500" height="667" class="float-left st-michael-img-500" />
“This win is a huge milestone in the history of the Model UN club at SMCS,” says Francesco Bellissimo, teacher and one of the Model UN faculty moderators, along with Vanessa Iaboni. “While the club has had the honour of winning delegation awards at other Model UN conferences, these conferences were much smaller in scale. To win an award of this nature, at such a large conference like UTMUN, is truly an accomplishment.”
UTMUN hosts high school delegation teams from all over the world and is the largest conference that SMCS participates in each year.
“I have never felt so proud of St. Mike&#8217;s,” says Lucas Umali, Grade 12, who has been a member of the club since Grade 10. “Knowing that I can be the best on an international stage comforted me immensely, knowing that all my hard work and passion have paid off. But most importantly, and to my surprise, SMCS winning Best Overall Delegation put the biggest smile on my face. I&#8217;m proud to be a part of a monumental accomplishment in our school&#8217;s Model UN history, our first-ever delegation award at a prestigious conference with just six people.”
In addition to the overall award, three SMCS delegates also took home awards in their respective committees: Umali and Austin Theal each won Best Delegate, and Ronan Zhong won Honourable Mention.
“These conferences provide students with unique and exciting educational opportunities as they prepare resolutions to dynamic and real-world situations, participate in debates, and refine their skills in the art of diplomacy and negotiation,” says Bellissimo. “For Ms. Iaboni and me, this is truly a proud moment for both of us. We have been significantly involved with the club for several years and have watched it grow during this time. This award is truly a milestone in the club&#8217;s evolution, so it is a rewarding experience for us and builds excitement for what the future holds!”
In recent years, the SMCS Model UN club has also won top delegation awards at the annual Havergal College Model UN Conference in 2021 and 2025.
“Receiving Best Overall Delegation at this most recent conference was especially meaningful to me,” says Zhong, Grade 12, who also joined the club in Grade 10. “I won my first-ever individual award at UTMUN in 2024, and now our club has won Best Overall Delegation in my senior year, making my Model UN journey feel truly full circle. It was incredibly rewarding to see our collective hard work pay off. As a Grade 12, this award also reassures me that the legacy of Model UN at SMCS is in good hands, especially with so many new members contributing to the delegation.”
The Model UN club at SMCS is always accepting new members interested in debate, politics, and international affairs, or in improving their public speaking and presentation skills.
“Model UN is a place to meet people,” says Theal, Grade 12. “I didn&#8217;t join Model UN in Grade 9 because I was particularly interested in global politics, or because I had a deep fascination with interesting roleplay or proper procedure, I joined Model UN because I&#8217;m an extrovert who enjoys debate. As much as Model UN is a club that enforces academic rigour and competitive diplomacy, it is also a way to foster communication skills and have personally meaningful dialogue with like-minded people.”

<h1>SMCS Student-Athlete Prepares to Head South</h1>
St. Michael’s College School (SMCS) Grade 12 student Luke Olynick has committed to continue his academic and athletic journey at the University of Hartford this fall, where he will join the men’s golf programme and pursue a degree in business management at The Barney School of Business.
“The University of Hartford was a fit for me both academically and athletically,” says Olynick. “The golf team has had an incredible year competing in the NCAA, and I felt the school itself offered a strong business programme where I could further my education. I had lunch with the guys on the team, and they were all amazing to me and made me feel very welcome. I also really enjoyed learning about the school itself and what it has to offer!”
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/smcs-luke-olynick-2.5.jpg" alt="SMCS student-athlete Luke Olynick commits to Hartford." width="1200" height="800" class="st-michael-img-1200" /> 
Olynick picked up the sport of golf at age seven and started playing competitively at 11 while honing his skills at his home course, St. George’s Golf and Country Club in Toronto. In 2024, he was named SMCS Junior Golf MVP and St. George’s Junior Golfer of the Year.
“I’m really excited to be joining the Hartford Hawks golf programme, and I already know it’s a great place to grow as a player and a person,” adds Olynick. “They had some great success last year, including winning the Conference of New England Championship and finishing first in the New England Intercollegiate Golf Association Championship. I also like that the schedule includes playing a variety of courses in different states, which will be a great experience to travel and continue to do what I love—play competitive golf.”
During his four years on the SMCS golf team, Olynick has experienced tremendous growth, both on and off the course.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/smcs-luke-olynick-3.jpg" alt="SMCS student-athlete Luke Olynick commits to Hartford." width="1200" height="797" class="st-michael-img-1200" /> 
“Luke has been a steady presence on the Blue Eagles Golf Team and has been an integral part of three consecutive CISAA championships and an OFSAA title in 2024,” says Nunzio Corrente, teacher and golf team coach alongside Paul Ruta and Mike Ross ’85. “With a remarkable skill set and a competitive spirit, Luke&#8217;s game is built to take on the challenges of collegiate golf, and we can’t wait to see how he shines on the course. The coaching staff is excited and proud of Luke and looks forward to seeing him play at the collegiate level.”
In addition, his academic progress has blossomed alongside his golf career, earning honour roll status in Grade 11 and well on his way to repeating it in his graduating year.
“SMCS prepared me really well to succeed as a student-athlete by teaching me how to balance academics and athletics at a high level,” says Olynick. “The school emphasizes strong time-management skills, which helped me stay organized while juggling classes, practices, and competitions. Teachers were supportive and held me to high standards, which pushed me to work hard and stay accountable.”
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://d97pdw6wu0.wpdns.site/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/smcs-golf-team-ofsaa-2025.jpg" alt="SMCS Golf Team 2025 OFSAA win" width="1200" height="857" class="st-michael-img-1200" /> 
On the course, Olynick represented SMCS golf teams that captured CISAA championships in 2023, 2024, and 2025, as well as an OFSAA gold in 2024.
“I have really enjoyed playing for the SMCS Blue Eagles, where I’ve improved my competitive golf skills and gained more confidence on the course. The coaches have given us so many amazing opportunities to compete. They always push us to do our best while still making the experience fun. I am very grateful for all the time, support, and guidance the coaches have given me. Because of them, I have grown not only as a golfer but also as a person.”
