Interests

Profile: , I am currently studying at Cardinal Newman College in year 12 and enjoy being organised while working hard to make sure that I am punctual for College lectures and Team meetings on line. While at High school, I worked as part of the Prefect team within the Academy and I carried out duties regularly, demonstrating responsible and positive behaviour, showing care and understanding to others. Being part of the school choir for 5 years, developed my ability to listen and work as part of a team. We sang regularly in Blackburn Cathedral and celebrations throughout the Academy year. Attending a dance school since the age of five has allowed me to develop skills and techniques in dance, while practicing and demonstrating team building skills while working towards qualifications. . Work Experience: , I work as a part time cleaner and enjoy all aspects of this job. I always ensure I am thorough, organising and keeping spaces hygienic and tidy. I use equipment safely and make sure the work I do is always to a high standard. Hobbies and interests: I enjoy dance, going to the gym, walking my two dogs and being with my family and friends.
