| My name is Nikki Sauvé and I am a grade twelve student at Lillooet Secondary School. This is my second Science Fair and I am excited to attend, as I love travelling and meeting new people. I like to keep busy and I am in various after school activities including, track, badminton, volleyball, and library club. Also, I run the grad council and am the coordinator of the Summer Reading Program at the public library. I am very passionate about literacy and science. Dangerous chemicals fascinate me, hence my project dealing with arsenic! I wish all of my fellow participants at CWSF 2013, good luck! |
