Science Fair Got a Great Reaction!

We had nineteen participants in this year’s science fair and they covered an array of subject matter from catalysts to the Bernoulli principal. The younger students were asked to do a demonstration with the purpose of teaching them the aspects of the scientific method and letting them have the experience of keeping a lab book, preparing a presentation board and delivering their material verbally. The grade threes were asked to do an actual experiment, formulate a hypothesis, chart and synthesise their data. Upper elementary were asked to identify a research question through a comprehensive research review. Then they had to test their hypothesis, record their results and identify new avenues of research or applications for their work, based on their findings. Every single child fulfilled the criteria, presented beautifully finished projects and appeared to have a great time doing it. The entire school community came out that night to check it out. Nice work, folks!
