This week, May 14-19, Diego Gaudet (École La Source, Grade 11), Jessica Tichit (École Harrison, Grade 8), Armaan Chaudhari (Vincent Massey High School, Grade 9), and Spencer Pearce (École La Source, Grade 10) have been in Edmonton competing at the Canada Wide Science Fair.
These four students were the top winners at the Western Manitoba Science Fair in April, and they moved on to the Canada Wide Science Fair to represent Western Manitoba this week.
The Canada-Wide Science Fair (CWSF) is the country’s largest annual youth science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) event, bringing together top young scientists and their projects, selected from a national network of over 100 regional STEM fairs in every province and territory. Held in Edmonton, the fair welcomed 400 brilliant young minds from across the country for this national week long event, giving finalists an opportunity to compete for cash prizes, scholarships, and special awards. In addition, they participated in a variety of virtual science based activities/workshops.
