Have you ever wondered how taste buds work or how to make your own flash light? Northland School Division's Regional Science Fair provided those answers and more on Tuesday March 15th at Bishop Routhier School. The school's gymnasium was packed with over 50 students, staff and parents from Bishop Routhier School (Peavine Métis Settlement), Grouard Northland School, Hillview School and St. Theresa School (Wabasca-Desmarais). Regional Science Fair judges Kaylyn Jackson, Lesser Slave Watershed Council, Levi Ness, High Prairie RCMP, Don Cunningham, Bishop Routhier Local School Board Committee, Janis Cunningham, Bishop Routhier School Substitute Teacher and Volunteer reviewed 46 projects who placed 1st or 2nd place in local science fairs. 

Whether it was watching how a storm is formed, or learning which energy drink creates the most electricity, the judges had their hands full deciding on who deserves 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for students in grades 1-7. Bishop Routhier School Teacher and Regional Science Fair Organizer Heather Hempstock says she was impressed with every student who participated in the Regional Science Fair. She would also like to thank all of the volunteers who made the Regional Science Fair a success. 

Congratulations to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners!
