| I am in grade 7 and I am 12 years old. I am a Highland dancer and I play the cello. I am a member of Kamloops 1st Couteau Scouts and I enjoy camping, hiking, swimming and kayaking. My favorite winter sports are curling and downhill skiing. I like to do any type of crafts including quilting. My favorite thing to do is read. I am a member of the Big Little Science Centre in Kamloops and have done the 3-D print club and Lego Robots camp there. I have participated in regional science fair for 3 years and this is my first CWSF. I got the idea after seeing my Mom sorting out our expired sunscreens, and I wanted to know if we could still use them. I learned a lot about sunscreen from doing this project and some of my results surprised me. |
