Favourite Memories and Accomplishments

             One of my favourite memories was when I went to the Philippines. This was one of my favourite memories because it was where I was born and I haven’t been there in five years. We went swimming in a resort that my great uncle owns and we also visited a lot of family. We did a lot of shopping and went to Mall of Asia. We also rode a ship going to an island called Corregidor which was the battle ground of the war between the Filipinos and Japanese. In Corregidor, we went inside a tunnel where many Japanese committed suicide because they didn’t want to surrender.

             Another one of my favourite memories was the summer of 2013. We went to many places such as Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal. We also went to see the Niagara Falls. We went up the CN Tower and we went on many rides in Canada’s Wonderland. We visited the Parliament building and went on a tour around Ottawa and Montreal.

             One of my favourite accomplishments was getting three awards last year. I got a golden honour roll. I also got two academic awards for math and English.

My Three Favorite Memories:
One of my favorite memories is meeting hall of fame basketball player Clyde Drexlar. My old school Dalhousie got the opportunity to meet him and some Harlem globe trotters. We also got to see the NBA finals trophy.
Another one of favorite memories is going to Calgary for a swim meet. The plane ride was only 2 and a half hours. In the swim meet I only got a silver and a bronze.
The last of my favorite memories is making my first basket in basketball. I remember this because I took  25 shots and only made one, I was so happy even though I was only two feet away from the basket.

Memories/Achievements 

My first memory is when I went to Maui, Hawaii in 2014. I went with my family and my friends family. I went snorkelling, on a submarine ride, and drove up the mountains. 

My second achievement is when I went to Calgary for volleyball nationals a couple weeks ago. It was a lot of fun and my team did alright. 

My third memory and achievement is when I got on the honour roll.

Favourite Memories or Accomplishments

One of my favourite memories are when I went on a trip to on a Cessna plane. This was fun for me because it was the first time that I had ever been a Cessna. It is different from commercial planes because it is much smaller, and you have access to all of the flight controls, as well as ground control. A fun part from this was that the pilot let me fly the plane for a short while over downtown Winnipeg. I got to control the lift of the plane, and steer it side to side. This was fun because I never had flown a plane before, and it felt amazing to be in control of a plane, while listening to ground control on headphones. 

One of my accomplishments is that I took part in a provincial science fair called the Manitoba Schools Science Symposium. This year, I did a project to determine if there is a relationship between cinnamon and a cure for Alzheimer's disease. For the project, I received a silver medal, and 2 sponsorships from neuroscience committees, as well as 250 dollars for the project.

Another accomplishment is that I got 4th place in a doubles badminton tournament with Kavisha. This was special because it was the first time that I was able to win something in a badminton tournament. Also, I was able to improve in my badminton skills from last year, and be able to place in the top 4 in a badminton tournament.

Accomplishments/Memories

One of my memories and accomplishemnts I have is winning basketball championships last year at St. Pauls gym. This was memorable for me because this was my first year playing basketball, and I was able to make the competitive team.

Another memory is going to Jamaica for the first time when I was in grade 5. It was memorable for me because it was like my first real family vacation and I met a lot of nice people and stayed at a really nice hotel.

An accomplishment I have is getting on the honor roll last year and this year. This is an accomplishment for me because I worked very hard to make it on to the honour roll and it payed off.

My Three Best Accomplishments in grade 4-8

by Bennet Finney 8A

My three best accomplishments in my life are all in school. First being getting first place in everything in our school for track except for long jump in grade 4. That year I tried hard to win all events and was proud of myself for doing so. My second is being getting an academic award in grade 7 for band. In grade 7, I loved band and wanted to succeed to playing an instrument and that produced an award for my effort. My last accomplishment is getting two sports awards this year for basketball and Ultimate Frisbee. I wanted to win an award this year really bad and I did so I feel very proud and confident in myself and my sports abilities.

Favourite Memories/ Accomplishments

        One of my favourite memories was when I went to Clear Lake last Summer in July. I went with my friend, her family, and another friend. I got to see so many beautiful things and did a lot of fun stuff. We went paddle boarding and swimming during the day, and went shopping and got ice cream in the evening. I had some fun memories that I will never forget and I would go again if I got the chance.

        

         Another favourite memory of mine was going to Vancouver, British Columbia for the Vancouver Whitecaps soccer tournament this Spring break. I loved the experience of team travel and the bonding we got to do there. We got to go sight seeing and we played great competition there because we played in an age advanced division. I got put in a hotel room with my best friend so it made the trip that much more fun and I have some unforgettable memories there.

           Lastly I would like to talk about one of my accomplishments. That is making the U14 girls Bonivital soccer team. I am glad I am still on this team. I always enjoy myself at practices and games because my teammates and I have bonded so much over the years and they are important friends. It is nice being part of a team and having a common goal. That is something I will always remember and be proud of.
