| I am a grade 10 student at Adam Scott in Peterborough, Ontario. I have many interests in extracurricular activities. I am on the hockey team at school and I also play house league. My hobbies consist of being a hockey referee, biology and pet care. I am interested in being someone nobody has seen before. I am very determined and passionate about what I do. I do extremely difficult multi-day canoe and hiking trips with my family. I have some post-secondary plans: I want to go to Fanshaw college in London for biology because a lot of my achievements have been in biology as I love being outdoors and learning about plants, animals and the human body. Some of my achievements have been getting many awards in my regional science fair. I have been competing since grade one and this is my first trip to Canada Wide. |

Duckweed and crickets used as bioindicators showed that algae and coconut were the best biofilters |
