Lei Wei

I’ve been a member of the school cooking club since I was ten. I’m best known as a brilliant cake maker. Last year, I made 100 cupcakes for my cousin’s 18th birthday party and everyone said they were delicious. Cooking is only expensive if you buy unusual food, like Chinese vegetables that you can’t find in a supermarket. I did this and make a special dinner for my Dad when he was 50.

When I was younger, I became interested in photography when my uncle let me take photos on his big digital camera. I’ve got my own camera now – I saved my pocket money for a year to buy it and it’s fantastic. I love taking photos of people playing sport – it’s really difficult to catch them at the right moment so I take several photos. The headteacher has asked me to take the photos at the school fashion show, which will be fun.

Romeo

My aunt works for a fashion magazine and wears really cool clothes. I’m different to most boys because I love making clothes for me and my sisters, so I want to study fashion at college. I’ve already got some experience of the fashion world. With my aunt’s help, I won a competition to help get the clothes ready when a famous American photographer came to take photos of models wearing winter clothes. It was a really interesting day and I could earn some money.
