      Activities and Societies: Rugby team, Football team, Cricket team, Drama Company and Choir. Aside from being the place where I developed a passion for chemistry, a large aspect of my school life was being part of the drama society. Drama provided me with the ability to adapt and engage in different scenarios that promote a preferred outcome. It taught me the ability to confidently publicly speak allowing a message to be emphasised and conveyed. Additionally, drama was the foundation on which my confidence, communication skills and adaptability was built.
