|---|
| I participate in many different ativities and clubs both within my school and outside. In school I take part in leadership clubs such as the athletic council and student senate. I also particularly enjoy being a member of two in school choirs; the grade eight choir and audiitioned "Take Two" choir. The last major area in which I participate in school is athletics, where I take part in morning recreational clubs, intramural leagues all year round as well as the cross country team during the Spring. Outside of school, I also play waterpolo competitively. Waterpolo is a sport that I love very much and I am very dedicated to. Karate is also an essential part of my week and has been important in my life since I was 6. In addition to these sports, I also play piano; in which I recently passed my grade 6 exam. I enjoy keeping busy! |
