School Scientific Projects
This year’s theme played a big part on the types of projects the learners completed. The projects showed how chemistry affects our lives on daily bases and it was really fulfilling to observe how learners understand the impact of chemistry through the scientific projects they produced. The time and efforts the learners put in making projects is important for their future as it gives them the broader picture of how Mathematics, Science and Technology touch them in everyday life. There were a total of 103 projects that were displayed at the exhibition.
