| My name is John Ivanco, I am in grade 8 and I go to Oakville Christian School. I play a variety of sports as part of my school, but at this time, I only have one outside league, which is soccer. I skateboard, at least once every day. I am very good at math and I do well in a lot of subjects. I am interested in careers such as earth sciences and environmental solutions to problems. I got a variety of awards at the BASEF science fair in 2008 and 2009 and I am excited about going to the CWSF. |
