I attended a provincial speech competition this year with my school. My extra curricular activities include piano, badminton and karate. I participate in activities with a historical society at Fort Edmonton Park. My passion outside of school is horseback riding. I volunteer with a local stable to assist disabled riders. I have been working at my father's greenhouse operation for many years. I plan to become a veterinarian. |
