During my time volunteering at Wenrick Kennels and Amaze n Fun, I had the opportunity to contribute to the community in meaningful ways. At Wenrick Kennels, I helped care for animals, ensuring they were well-fed, exercised, and comfortable while also learning responsibility and empathy. Meanwhile, at Amaze n Fun, I assisted with organizing events and engaging with families, creating a welcoming and enjoyable environment for everyone. Both experiences taught me valuable skills in communication, teamwork, and problem-solving, and allowed me to make a positive impact in my community by supporting local businesses and helping others enjoy their experiences.

In terms of personal achievements, I’ve made significant progress in both my academics and extracurricular activities.

Beyond academics, I’ve taken on leadership roles, organizing events such as the school’s athletic banquet and planning activities for Grade 9 Day. These experiences have helped me develop skills in time management, leadership, and communication.
