HOBBIES, INTERESTS AND CLUBS
I enjoy going to the gym twice a week and enjoy swimming, cross-country and
the treadmill. I enjoy the social aspect of the Gym environment where I
have made many friends and enjoy a busy interactive atmosphere. I am an
Animal lover and have my own dog that I daily exercise and take to puppy
classes once a week in the evenings.
I enjoy socialising by way of going to the Cinema and eating out with my
friends once every few weeks.
Whilst at school I attended Drama Class weekly as en extra curricula
activity and enjoyed the group activities we where set. I learnt about
improvising, chorography, script writing and directing. I learnt many new
skills whilst in Drama class about working together as a team and different
group interactions.
From 2009 to 2010, I got involved in Dalton Cubs, as my younger brother was
a member. I was a mentor for the younger children and I assisted them with
various activities both in the Cub hut and away on outings.
