ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The purpose of this study was to determine how teenagers spend their leisure time in El Dorado West Secondary School. This process was carried out using a questionnaire with fifteen questions. It would not have been possible and enjoyable without the help of my teacher, Mr. Sooknanan. I want to him for his guidance and Ms. Forbes also as well as the Almighty God for the inspiration to do this project.
