When I'm not at school I spend my leisure time playing Rep Hockey and OBA Basketball in the winter and Rep Soccer in the summer. I also enjoy reading mysteries, scrapbooking, babysitting and swimming. One day I would like to play on the Canadian Women's Hockey Team in the Olympics. I would also like to further my studies in Science and become an Epidemiologist. Last year I was valedictorian for my grade 8 class and received numerous awards for my academic achievements. On my hockey team I am known as the REAL "Syd the Kidd". | | Hannah - I am 14 years old and I'm a grade nine student at Almaguin Highlands Secondary School.
