Students from across southwestern Alberta descend on Alberta this weekend for Sci-Fusion.
The two-day events include the Lethbridge Regional Science Fair and Science Olympics, with the event being open to students from kindergarten to grade 12. The Science Olympics involves several activities where students are presented with a challenge that needs to be solved in teams.
On the science fair side, the top projects from students in grades 7 to 12 will be invited to take part in the Canada-Wide Science Fair in Ottawa from May 25th to June 1st. Each project will be evaluated by a panel of judges following a presentation by the student, through either a poster or a logbook. Also, students taking part in the science fair automatically are entered for the Science Olympics, which takes place on Saturday.
Sci-Fusion is happening from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, April 26th and 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 27th in the Science Commons Building at the University of Lethbridge.
