| Sarah - I am in grade 7 at Precious Blood School. I participate in many sports and extra curricular activities, such as figure skating, tennis, baseball, swimming, basketball, track and field, cross country and piano. I have many achievements that I am proud of related to these sports or extra curricular activities, such as the preliminary ladies Trillium Starskate provincial gold medal, grade 3 in Royal Conservatory piano exams, an Ontario Track and Field Association gold medal for the 200m race and my level 9 Red Cross badge in swimming. I hope to keep trying my best in all my activities and sports. In the future I would also like to keep pursuing academic studies and study medicine in order to become a family physician. I am very happy to have had an opportunity to work with my partner, Nicole Winters, and for the very special opportunity to participate in Canada Wide Science Fair! | | Nicole - My name is Nicole Winters, I am a grade 8 student from Precious Blood School, Exeter, Ontario. I am the eldest of three children. This is my first Canada-Wide Science Fair, and I am extremely excited! I love to involve myself in sports and extracurricular activities such as competitive soccer, and I also train for cross-country running and track and field.
