Every class will get a chance to visit the displays.

A group of Science teachers from all three streams will judge the winners. Points will be given for creativity, presentation and scientific content. Remember, you can learn something even from an experiment that doesn’t go according to plan. How do I sign up? Let your teacher know that you are interested and he/she will give you a proposal form.
