YOUNG ENGINEERS AND SCIENTISTS
Young, creative and energetic
The best time of year for the Electricity+Control team
is when the Eskom Expo for Young Scientists takes
place. This year, it took place at the Birchwood Confer-
ence Centre in Boksburg in early October. The Expo is
a Science Fair, where students have a chance to display
and discuss their explorations. Students discuss their
work with judges, teachers and students from other
schools, with parents and with other interested people.
By participating, students increase their awareness of
the wonders of Science and Engineering.
