BC Provincial Achievement Scholarship Voucher and the BC District Scholarship Voucher
I received this BC Provincial Achievement Scholarship Voucher when I graduated high school in 2016. It is given to 8,000 students with the top academic achievement in the province. The scholarship is based on academic achievement in grades 10-12 and it does not require a student to apply for the award, the grades are automatically considered. I also received the BC District Scholarship Voucher when I graduated high school. It is given to 5,500 students who have demonstrated excellence in their chosen area. For this scholarship, I choose physical activity for my chosen area. Both scholarships were $1250.00 put towards my tuition.
Academic All-Canadian
The award I am most proud of is the Academic All-Canadian award. This reward is given to students who receive academic excellence while playing varsity-level sports. Students must receive an academic standing of 80% or better while playing on various teams. I received this award in the 2017/2018 school year while I was playing soccer for the TRU Wolfpack. The reason I am most proud of this award is that I know how hard it really was. The year before this I was struggling acedemically, but this year I was able to bounce back.
Estsék’ Environmental Services LLP Bursary
I received this bursary in the Fall of 2019. It is given to students who are in the last academic year of their science degree. It is only given to students in three schools in the North Thompson District (Simpcw First Nations Territory). The idea behind this award is to give it to students who are currently enrolled in a post-secondary science degree and aspire to work in the scientific or environmental field.
