Personal Statement
Hi, I'm Gigi!
I'm a seventeen-year-old International Student from Melbourne, Australia. I go to Caulfield Grammar School and I'm currently in year 12. I will graduate in December 2020.
I've been running for over eight years. After experiencing many different events, I have been running 400m's and 800m's for the past years. I train nearly every day of the week with a fantastic group of talented, professional athletes that are older than me. My aim each time I enter a race is to better myself, whether that be by lowering my PB or by learning something new to take and use for my next race.
I do have a life outside of athletics and thoroughly enjoy playing basketball at a club and high school level. I also enjoy hanging out with my friends but always make sure my school work fits into this regime. I have a strong passion and love for animals and I have been a vegetarian for all of my life.
I have big goals and one of them is to go to college! I believe with the right amount of training and support I can do anything I set my mind to. I value dedication, persistence, humility and hard-working attitudes. I would love to attend a college with the same views.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Gigi.
