Chantelle Naraine

Hi ! I am the leader of our team. I emigrated from England just over 2 years ago. That’s how we got this idea. This web site was very hard to make, but it was fun writing the Pick-a-Path stories with Rachel. This was a great experience for me and the team, and hopefully we will participate in next year’s Thinkquest competition.

I am 12 years old, and I live with my mum and my little sister in Whakatane, which is in the North Island of New Zealand. I am a chocoholic, and I love junk food. I like clothes shopping and having sleepovers with friends. I love cats and I bought my first one on the 1st August 1999. It is ginger and white, and it’s name is Chamois. I can’t wait until the millennium, but I won’t be going to Gisborne for it. I will try to stay up all night so that I can see the dawn !!! My favourite colours are silver, blue and purple. I like doing origami and playing video games. I also like playing touch rugby. When I grow up, I want to be a neurosurgeon or a scientist of some kind.

I would like to thank Rachel, Simon, our coaches, Mr. Hawkes , Mr. Clulow, and Mr. Terry . Thank you also to Awakeri School for letting us use their computers. Also a big thank you to all the people who participated in our questionnaire. Finally, I would like to thank my mum, for helping me to keep going through the hard times.
