Science & Technology Fairs
Unfortunately the Science and Technology Fairs are on hold at the moment, but keep watching this space and we will let you know when they are up and running agani.
For students from year 9 to 13, who want to develop great science and/or technology research and practical skills and to learn more about what happens with science and/or technology in the real world.
We use CREST (Creativity in Science and Technology) http://www.royalsociety.org.nz/teaching-learning/crest/ or NCEA Senior Practical Investigation project as helpful ways in developing a great project.
We can also help with entries into Pacifica Fusion Science Section.
Organisational Details
Students will meet with Mrs Fletcher or Mrs Taylor, once a week to talk about their project, gain information, access to resources, help and support. The majority of the project is completed in the student’s own time.
