Maths-Science Life Impact

Posted in Adelaide, schools, science, youth at 4:42 am by cminge

Registration for the 2008 Maths Science Life Impact event is now available.

We are structuring the event a little differently this year. The event will be held from Tuesday 18 November to Thursday 20 November. Schools will be invited to nominate up to 10 of their year 9 students to attend either a morning or afternoon session on one of these days.  The sessions will consist of hands-on activities and experiments designed to enthuse students and encourage them to continue with their Maths and Science subjects.
