SUCCESSFUL SCIENCE SYMPOSIUM
Since the beginning of January, the Grade 8 science classes had been hard at work on our science fair projects. We spent hours researching, hypothesizing and experimenting. In the end, we placed all our hard work upon our backboards and presented them to our classmates and families, Mr. Zimmerman, and invited guests.
Eleven Grade 8 students were chosen to attend Manitoba Schools Science Symposium from April 26-29, 2018. On Thursday evening, we registered and set up our projects. The opening ceremonies were held on Friday morning, followed by science activities for the remainder of the day. Saturday, our projects were presented and judged. Sunday was public viewing, followed by award presentations and closing ceremonies. All BH girls left with an award!
Bronze medals were presented to Kaylee Nguyen, Natalie Cuvelier, and Malaya Humeniuk. Silver medals were presented to Lucy MacDougall, Hannah Friesen, Safiya Ratana, Lauren King, Samantha Lowe, and me. Gold medals were presented to Sophie Schwartz and Lucy Christopher, along with Grade 10 student Irina Znamirowski.
Samantha Lowe was also presented with a special engineering award, while Sophie Schwartz was awarded the best junior individual social science award.
Irina Znamirowski won Best Intermediate Biological Science Project and Delegation to Canada Wide Science Fair.
Our congratulations, everyone!
