My Grade 9 Year

My grade 9 year has been a year to remember. I am most proud of making the grade 9 volleyball team which went on to play in the Fraser Norths, and when I was awarded top student in my social studies class with a 97%. But, I was also faced with some challenges. These included having to take finals for the first time and getting to know brand-new people in my classes. Luckily, I was able to overcome these challenges by setting aside enough time for studying and asking questions before my finals, and I pushed myself to talk to new people in my class to get to know them. This year my favourite subjects were PE, Science, and Socials. I enjoyed PE so much because I was able to try new sports I had never played and play some of my favourite sports, like volleyball. I also enjoyed that we did some sports with older classes because I loved how competitive everyone became. I especially liked science this year because it is the subject I feel I learned the most in. From learning about matter to chemistry, or biology my science class was always so fun and intriguing. Lastly, I enjoyed Social Studies because it was the class in which I made the most new friends in. In addition, I enjoyed the topics we covered, like the Reign of Terror, and the Industrial Revolution. I also made multiple lasting memories. From watching the late-night football games to the senior girls’ soccer matches, or even just hanging out with my friends at lunch, these are memories that will always be special to me. In my grade 10 year, I hope to continue to work hard towards my goals and create more memories.

My Favourite Quote

My favourite quote that means a lot to me is “What I remember most about high school are the memories I created with my friends.” – J. J. Watt. I chose this as my favourite quote because my friends are a huge part of my life. I also feel the friends you make and stick with through high school will be with you for the rest of your life.
