After I graduate from high school I plan on going to university to go into nursing. I got my inspiration for this project from other students who have done it before.

My advice to students is that you can achieve anything with hard work and commitment. | | Kelly - my name is Kelly Sutherland, I am 16 years old,I am in grade 11 and go to Peguis Central School.
