Manawatu Science and Technology Fair

Over the weekend of 17th - 20th August 2017, PNBHS students entered their Science projects into the Manawatu Science and Technology Fair. The students had to summarise their project onto a board, talk with research scientists about their project and answer questions.  Jacob Aull, Jonas Holman and a group of Lachlan Walcraft, Rohan Sharma and Davis Farrar-Ferguson all gained Fonterra High Distinction Awards. Special Prizes were also picked up in the following categories: Massey University, IFS Highly Commended Statistics Prize – Emmanuel Joseph Shaji, John Robinson and Alan Kirk; New Zealand Institute of Chemistry First Place Prize – Jonas Holman; Jacob Aull won the National Collective – Te Tahuri Whenua Prize, Ministry for Pacific Peoples Vaka Science Excellence Award First Place Science Section and Highly Commended in the Pasifika Theme Projects. A big thank you to Ms Taylor for all her behind the scenes work she does with the students, helping them with their projects.
