| My name is Nikki Sauvé and I’m a grade eleven student at Lillooet Secondary School. This is my first year in Science Fair, but I’m excited to attend Nationals. I love travelling and meeting new people. Next year I’m going to Costa Rica with my school! I like to keep busy and am in various after school activities including track, cross country, swim team, badminton, Best Buddies, running lunch time Intramurals, and Library Club. Also, I work at the downtown Library. I love reading and my main goals are to promote literacy, science, and clean water in my community! Lastly, I enjoy painting, walking my dogs, candle making, and have decorated over five hundred cupcakes this year. I wish all of my fellow participants at CWSF 2012, good luck! |
