Another Successful Regional Science Fair at Bishop Routhier School
Posted on April 30
Young scientific minds left a lasting legacy at Northland School Division’s Regional Science Fair on April 27th at Bishop Routhier School. Approximately 50 students from St. Theresa School (Wabasca-Desmarais), Gift Lake School, Hillview School (East Prairie Métis Settlement), Grouard Northland School and Bishop Routhier School (Peavine Métis Settlement) showcased projects for judges, parents and community members that would even impress Bill Nye the Science Guy. Jesse Lee-Morin, Northern Lakes Collaborative Services and Beth Cramer, Alberta Health Services, were given the task of judging over 30 projects by students who placed 1st or 2nd place in local science fairs. Projects varied from watching students walk on eggs, learn which soda impacts teeth the most and how eye colour matters in relation to vision. Heather Hemptock, Bishop Routhier School Teacher and Regional Science Fair Organizer says she was so impressed to see so many quality projects.
