Hello, my name is Amelia. I am 14 years old and have been going to Brookes since grade 6. I was born here in Victoria, BC but my family was all born in England, UK. Despite being an only child, I have a very large family in England where I travel to often, and as you may have noticed, I have a bit of a British accent. I love the outdoors, hiking, and especially birding, which is mine – and my parents’ – biggest passion. I have seen almost 1,200 different species of birds in the world. I love travelling the world to see new birds and experience new things. I enjoy being active and playing sports. I’m looking forward to joining the school track and field team in the summer, and I am currently participating in the school’s cross-country team. Outside of school, I enjoy participating in martial arts, and playing my violin.
