Biography
My name is Brooke, I attend Westside Academy and am in grade 8. I play the Baritone Saxophone in the school band. We have won three gold medals at the District Festival. I also play the the violin in the Prince George Youth Orchestra and we won a $100 scholarship this year. I enjoy mountain biking and play soccer. I also love hiking and camping. When I graduate, I would like to become a Medical Technician. My partner and I developed this project because we enjoy chemistry and working in a lab. Our plans for the further investigation of our project is to further develop our Cooperative. My advice to future students is to find a subject you enjoy and do something with it.
