Science Fayre 2023
The 2023 Science Fayre was back and better than ever, featuring the return of the winners from each of our feeder primary school as part of our event.
All S1 pupils take part in the event by working as part of a group on a topic of their choice, then the best groups are selected by their peers to go to the hall for a chance to present their ideas. They presented their ideas on Thursday 1st of June to the primary 7’s from Glencairn, Ladywell and Knowetop Primary schools and our own S1 classes. Before finally presenting to the judges on Friday the 2nd.
What did they see….?
Many of this year’s projects centred around the theme of “Connections” as this was the theme of British Science Week. Examples include The Tinted Taste group who explain the connection between taste and sight and The Polar Express who explain how various chemicals effect how quickly ice melts.
The judges who are former Dalziel pupils who are now working or studying in a scientific field, were very impressed by the enthusiasm and scientific knowledge of our pupils.
The winning groups were:
- S1 Best Overall Project: The Magnetic Fields (Cody Loudon, Jack Hamilton, Lucas McBride and Deakon Doig)
- S1 Best Presentation: Bees (Holly Crane, Maisie Watters and Noa Crawford)
- Best Primary: Glencairn
Well done to everyone involved in this year's Science Fayre.
