Biography
My name is Rachel Holloway. I’m 14 years old and I live in Callander, Ontario, situated just outside of North Bay. I have participated in science fairs since Grade 1 and am currently in Grade 9. I’m enrolled in the ST Wireless program, at West Ferris Secondary School. I enjoy, and excel, at my math and science classes. My favourite spare time activity is swimming! I have my Bronze Medallion, YMCA Assistant Swimming Instructor and I’m working on my Bronze Cross. I’m on my way to becoming a lifeguard and swimming instructor, and hope to achieve this by the time I’m 16. In the meantime, I am a volunteer at my local YMCA. Other hobbies include scrap booking, playing volleyball, drama, and singing. I’m in Grade 5 piano, and I play the flute. I work at a camp during the summers, where I am an assistant lifeguard and counselor. My long-term plan is to become a doctor.
