Torrae Wainwright
won the
French trip last summer.

especially extracurricular activities. One highlight was his trip
to Canada with the Saltus football team last term. Jonas also
plays football for BAA's U16 and first division teams, and is
working to get his scuba certification.
Young parliamentarians

Commonwealth Day. The trip included discussions about the Commonwealth, the
CPA, and its contribution to parliamen-
