Science Fair! Please find all the details below.

Registration forms with signatures are due by Friday, March 29th. Registration forms and details available on right hand sidebar under "Important Forms". Please print and return to school office. Spots will be filled "first come, first served."

This is a non-competitive fair, the students will have a commentator ask questions and give feedback.  Joining the fair is totally optional and not a requirement, it is simply to learn and have fun!!

Rules:

• No more than 3 students per project. Grades 1-6 entries are welcome.

• Registrations must be signed by one of the parents/guardians of each participant.
• Please indicate if the project has any special requirements such as an electrical outlet. If this is not indicated on the form, it may not be possible to accommodate the request
• There are 45 spots, first come, first served.  Space for late entries is not guaranteed.
• Please enter only one form per project
• Animals may not be brought to the Science Fair.  Also applies to any displays using flames or other ignition sources unless permission is obtained from the Fair organizer (Dana Kean danakean@gmail.com).
• Each project is assigned a space of 90 cm x 90 cm. Please design the display to fit in this space. Office supply stores sell fold-up display boards that can be reused provided non-permanent adhesives (e.g. Blue tack) are used. The display should generally present the hypothesis (the question being asked) or theme of the project, followed by the experimental method (if experiments are done) then the data or information obtained, and is finished with a general conclusion.
